2019 Why don't my frame generated parts section properly in drawing

Hey all I'm having trouble sectioning my drawing properly. It was fine until I started adding the frame generated parts. See below pic. Any section I create is the same.

Thanks for the link but no luck...

I unchecked the background update on the drawing tab in options dialog... I then selected the view... The update lightning bolt came on..  I updated.. Nothing...

The section is viewing the whole FG part regardless of direction and section distance. 

This FG part does follow a curve but in my mind it should be like any other curved part in this model

It seems to work if I make a detail of the area and then section the detail. Or I section another section

The question is why can't I section the assembly directly?

Section Participation...

 

Tools > Application Options > Drawing >Section Standard Parts > Always. You could control the components individually in the browser, but this will do all by default.

 

Hope that Helps.

Thanks. That worked. 

You know I've working with Inventor for over 7yrs and still don't understand the why for some of this stuff. 

 

Thanks again.
