Mark & Mike, To add a cross section to a model, you can do the following: 1. Pick the View Manager icon or pick View:View Manager. 2. In the View Manager window pick the Xsec tab. 3. Pick the New tab. 4. Type in the name, without any spaces in the name, for your cross section and hit enter (NOT the CLOSE button in the window). 5. If you are looking for a planar cross section, take the defaults in the Xsec Create window by choosing DONE (Offset will ask you to sketch the offset). 6. Either pick an existing plane (Assembly plane in an assembly or part plane in a part) or create one. 7. This will bring you back to the View Manager window. 8. Your cross section will now be on the list. 9. Double click on the cross section name and it will be displayed in the model. 10. To go back to the full model, without showing any cross sections, double click on No Cross Section. Dennis
