Hello,

I have a part file in which below three sections [Cut, OFFSET and ANOTHER_CUT] have been created using View->Section as below:

Section_0.png

For drawing file of same part, I would like to provide section details in a view. So, I would go to Drawing View manager. Then will select Sections and choose 2-D Cross Section. By clicking on + sign, below will be available:

Section.png

I would like to know significance of green sign of right and red sign of wrong in front section name. What does these signs indicate?

Thanks and Regards

Ketan

These are both planes/cuts through the view that will work in the view that you are modifying. (i.e. the section plane matches the plane of the view and is not skew to it.)

    If section ABC is in the XY plane, and view 123 is in the XZ plane, section ABC cannot be shown in view 123 because you will not be "looking" in the direction of the sectioned view.
