I created a break-out view, and now decided that I need to modify the spline that I used to as my cutout curve.
Can I do that? Or how do I delete the break-out?

Thanks

Go to Break-out option, select Edit or Delete and select your breack-out vew............
 
What version are you on?
To edit your break-out view go into the same menu that you created it with, and toggle Edit or Delete on the top of the menu.
When the spline needs to be modified I find it easier to delete that break-out view, but untoggle the delete curves option (so you can modify the existing spline), and do it over.
 
Thanks for the info...
I am using NX7.5, sorry - I should have mentioned that first
 
If i have to create a break-out section view, i always draw a closed, 2 degree spline by 3 points, make the view, and edit, if needed.
Under the edit, there is a button to modify the boundary (the last button, if I remember well), where you can redefine the spline points easily.
If you define the boundary with lines, a closed boundary's corners can be move, and it remains closed(!)
So -sorry Jerry- it is not easier to delete the break-out view, but if you use more points, or higher curve degree, it can be a pain..
