Section Participation

[Anonymous]

Shaft should not participate in the section view. Even though I selected the "non" option. I didn’t get it. How to fix it?

Hi fiatnm,

Tools tab  > Options panel  > Document Settings  button > Modeling tab > Participate in Assembly and Drawing Sections setting

See this help page for explanation:

http://help.autodesk.com/view/INVNTOR/2015/ENU/?guid=GUID-6A0E43B8-B99D-48ED-A491-D7BE1F36E62B

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

I have used the solution in other versions of inventor, but in the version of inventor 2023 it does not work. And I have the app fully updated.

Hi there,

I gave up Autodesk long ago. Now I do not know anything of Autodesk.

Thanks

Can you post a model here that shows the problem?  I'd like to see it for myself.

I have succeeded. The indication of no participation in the section had marked it in the wrong place. It is possible. I am sorry. Thanks you.

I'm having the same issue in Inventor 2023 where selecting None under Section Participation doesn't exclude the part from being sectioned. I see there was an issue that was supposed to be fixed in the Autodesk Inventor 2023.1 Update. I am working with Build: 271, Release: 2023.2.1 - Date: Wed 02/01/2023.

What's your pick priority at? Share a screenshot ?

What I'm trying to do is have the parts circled in pink included in the section view but not sectioned. It seems that since they aren't crossed by the section line they are excluded completely.

[mdavis22569]

that's something different than the issue of 2023.1 

need to turn of the participation in the browser tree

That is what I have done but it appears to only work on bodies that the section line crosses, bodies completely on the near side of the section line are excluded.

I did come up with a workaround using a derived part to create one solid body while keeping the seams between planes and then having a separate model state for that particular view. It's not ideal, maybe Autodesk will add functionality for this in a future version.

Hard to say .. without seeing all of the files myself 

[JaredJanis]

The model files are attached. These have been done as a training exercise by one of my junior designers.
