After reading everything I could find on cutting sections and not finding how to control depth easily, I called GTAC and asked about applying a depth to the section such that from the location of the cut, you would only see into the section say 36". My new friend Pat James at GTAC said he would...
We use clonning to to send out check sets for our checkers and also to take a picture of the whole project at a given date. We just open all models and all drawings, clone with appended date. We use cloning when a major design change comes through and this makes it very easy to prove completion...
This is bad for us, we are spending hours cutting sections and playing with depth and sometimes never getting it right, if anyone could point me to a tututorial or help section that will help me understand how center of view and clipping planes work I would be most greatful, I'll also try GTAC...
Thanks John, so back clipping is what I am looking for, how do I determine what number to enter to get a 36" view depth from where I cut my section in drafting. Sometimes I have models (like a bridge or a dam) hundreds of feet deep and will be cutting sections out of plane, and will never seem...
I cut a section in drafting and would like it to only show say a depth of 36" from where I cut the section. I read that clipping planes will do this but I never get consistent results and it is a guessing game what numbers to enter. Solid Edge and Solid Works do this in a very simple fashion so...
