Slice Graphics - Update

Slice Graphics - Update

The slice graphic uses a default slice texture. It's looks like concrete. Sometimes it's also easy to use the software Snagit for a quick screen cut to show specific details. The existing standard texture is blurry. It should be easy to choice different hatches to improve quick presentation pictures. I have seen somewhere how to change the section texture but it should be done in an easy way by drop menus.

 

I have added this idea for a couple of months ago but it was not possible to update the text inside the idea.

The ability to change the cross section texture when using slice graphic on sketch mode in Inventor 2019. By default, it is shown as a grainy concrete texture, how I would like to change this another texture or colour.

 

There were a few suggestion I came across to edit the registry key, however the required registry key is not available on Inventor 2019.

That workaround is good but only applies upto Inventor 2018; it no longer woks in 2019.

I agree with StevEn. Slice is not visible. You can compare with slice in Creo.

This idea has been implemented within Autodesk Inventor 2019.2.  A custom image can be specified from within the Application Options > Colors tab, by setting the Section Capping Plane Texture to "Bitmap Image".  Special thanks to everyone who cast a vote for it.
