help!!!! new pro-e user...still trying to learn the ins and out.
I am having trouble creating an aligned section and would like to know what's the best way to do so. I have gotten where it says to select axis. Do i have to go back and create an axis or 2 axis's at the model level or can i use "draft axis", if i use draft axis, how do i snap the end points to make sure it goes thru the center or the model...the model is round.
 
If you have drafts, it's better in my opinion to work in insert mode, before the drafts, and to create datum axis that you can use for alignment.

Any rotated feature will requires a sketched axis in the sketch mode.
You can align this axis to an existing axis or a datum plane.
You probably will have to turn "intent manager" off to get the axis to align to the correct feature.

I'm not sure what your question is?
Can you be more detailed?
