Section model while skeching

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

please see the following image:

If I want to sketch on the white plane, is there a way to see the model sectioned by that plane, so I can view my sketch and the section of the model at the exact point of the sketch?

Thanks a lot

Maybe I solved: section analysis. Right?

1. Start sketching on a face

2. Launch Section analysis and cut away the part that covers your sketch

3. Sketch

Bye

Fusion will do this for you in sketch mode.  Just check the "Slice" option in the sketch panel:

which will do exactly what you want:

Good Jeff...

Only an advise: each time I draw something (like a line for example) the view unslices itself an comes back to a complete 3d view.

Thank so much

Hi @Anonymous,

That does seem odd.  It's not supposed to turn off the slicing until you exit the sketch.  Can you record a screencast of what you see when you are sketching?  I'd like to see if I can spot what might be going wrong.

thanks,

Jeff
