Insert a section ISO view into a drawing

Hello

 

In a 3D assembly you can use Section View.

I would like to import this view into a drawing, is that possible?

 

Thank you

If you insert the current view, it doesn't work?

Hello

 

Yes, it's possible, just save it in 3D and it's available in 2D:

 

"

  • Save the section view as a named view in the part document or assembly, or as an annotation view for use in drawing documents."

No, it doesn't work.

Here is the result.

ACCELERATE THE CREATION OF PRODUCTION DRAWINGS TO GENERATE CONSISTENT SECTION VIEWS FASTER.

- Quickly visualize interfaces between internal components
- Quickly create section views, flattened section views, and partial section views using specific features
- Easily create section views that comply with standards such as ASME or ISO

When creating the section view (or editing by clicking on the cut face in the 3D > edit), you can save this view, it will then be available in the task pane on the right in the drawing (don't forget to update the view with the refresh button).

Thank you gt22 it works but I can't orient my view as I want, identical to my 3D?

Sorry Lucas but your solution doesn't work,

I created the cross-sectional view on my 3D but when I insert it it doesn't make the cut.

It's up to you to set your sight as you wish

 

Look at these tutorials

Hello

 

The first link in @gt22 works great!

A hard solution that also works

you have created your complete piece recording and ref

you open your room, change your name (cut piece X)

you make an elevation of material at the place where you made your cut and you make your drawing

Like Coyote: the 1st link of GT22 works well.

and I didn't know this function.... Thank you

Indeed it works,

but I would have liked to reorient the view a little as I wished. Is this possible?

Otherwise yes the hard method with a material removal function (in a config) and the most adapted to my problem.

Thank you.

Yes, you can reorient a drawing view using the attached image icon.

Oh thank you, that's exactly what I wanted to do.

So make an ISO cross-sectional view as explained in the gt22 link:

And after the reorientation as Coyote explained.

Thank you all.

Indeed, it is a shame not to be able to import a section view from the 3d model for a MEP. You have to create a new "cross-sectional view" configuration , link the display properties and extrude with material removal the area you want. This function in the "default" config must be "deleted" (# of deleted)  to be used only in the new "cross-sectional view" configuration. Then, in your MEP when you import a new view of the 3D you can select the configuration you want ("sectional view" or "default"). This method allows you to have a MEP with all your associative views to a single 3D.

To orient the view, simply orient the 3D model and select the current view.
