Not that I know of. Someone may have a better solution. One problem is that both holes overlap from top down near the inside edge.

Proper drafting technique would be similar to this:

For rotational object, the step section is not very powerful but functional.

You were almost there. I made the step section sketch on a datum plane perpendicular to DTM4.

If you want the arrows to show correctly, you will need an auxilery view to show the step.

Hi Dirriwachter,

thank you for help!

Does it mean that ProE WF4 can not cut model rotationally to a axis and only perpendical to datum plane? if it is right, it should be better to use two cross sections to show in detailing (drawing) which do not have any deform for above example.

Best regards, Hongjie
