Hidden lines visible on section plane/view of an assembly

I'm trying to make a section view of a component placed in the middle of an assembly, but I have a problem.

When I create the relative view on the drawing, all the hidden edges/components placed after the section plane are showed but thay should't have been visible (also components/edges placed after the sectioned area).
I have already set on the "view display options" of the "Drawing View" panel:

 

- Display style: No Hidden

- Tangent edges display style: Dimmed (I tryied also with "None")

- Hidden line removal for xhatches: Yes

 

any help, please?

Oh, and I forgot, you have to edit your cross section too to include quilts!! That's another one that baffles me as to why this wasn't default.

Are the view properties something like that:

I have probably a different CREO version, so I see a different view properties panel.

Anyway, as written initally, I have already set:

 

- Display style: No Hidden

- Tangent edges display style: Dimmed (I tryied also with "None")

- Hidden line removal for xhatches: Yes

 

I think that I have understood what's my problem.

I have an assembly made of two bodies and a shell. Creo works properly with bodies when it creates the section view, but makes mistakes with the shell, showing all its edges on the section view, and I am not able to fix it.

I fear that you are not in the correct community. Here you are in the community "Creo Elements Direct" that is a software different from Creo Parametric. You should move your post to the community "Creo Parametric" to have a better chance to get an answer.
