Quick question - Half section view is annoying!

[Rickpage76]

Hi,

I'm using half section view in the assembly environment

but moving the mouse about keeps flashing the complete model as a red skeleton view.

It's driving me nuts, I've halved the view for a reason & don't wish to see this.

I can't find a setting but is there one to turn it off?

Thanks

Application Options > Colors > Enable Pre-highlight (uncheck)

This simply turns off highlighting of components as you mouse over them in the graphics area, so probably not exactly what you're looking for.  But it does stop the objectionable behavior of highlighting the stuff on the invisible side of the section view.

Had the same style of problem when using Half View in Assembly. Some items would still be shown on th einvisible side.

Under FIle / OPTIONS / Assembly there's a check box 'section all parts'.

Clicked the check box and it solved my issue.
