Automated section view Drawing with crop

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello Everybody,

I am working on a samll project to automate the drawing of a cylindrical part (see attached picture). What I wish to do is place a section view of the part, but only one side of the section and not a complete view (picture).

I tried to add a crop to my section but i didn't manage to remove the crop (using iLogic) when dimensions of the part are changed. I also tried to do a halfway section but I was left with unwanted section lines (and I Don't know how to select them to change their visibilty). 

Could you please advise me ?

Thanks in advance

Thank you @bradeneuropeArthur for your reply.

yes this is it.

I need to generate this "half" section view using iLogic and add dimensions to it (especially internal and external diameter).

Thank you in advance

I did this in two steps without i-logic!

Would this be ok for you?

In fact I need to use ilogic to automate the process because there will be different parts with different dimensions. But you can share your solution maybe I can find a corresponding iLogic code.
