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?
Solved! Go to Solution.
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.
Are there surface or quilt features/models in your drawing?
In cross section views, surface/quilt features and/or models will not display right unless you have also selected "hidden line removal for quilts". I never understood who would want to have these show thru everything else but that is the default PTC has chosen
