Trying to create seed part drawings. I set "section line preferences" to "with section view" and save. Next time I open it switches it back to "without section view". Any ideas on how to fix it?

Just a guess, but make sure your customer defaults are set to "with section view". This setting may not saved with the part file.
 
I was going to mention the same thing:
File -> Utilities -> Customer Defaults -> Drafting -> Section Line
 
Thanks for the response. Checked it and was set for "with section view" in customer defaults.
 
What version of NX7.5? There was a bug with that preference that is fixed in NX7.5.4 and above.

NX4.0.4MP10, NX5.0.6, NX6.0.5, NX7.0.1, NX7.5.0-> NX7.5.5 & NX8.0.0 -> NX8.0.2, NX8.5p15
 
This seems to work fine for me using NX 7.5.5.4.

That being said, you may wish to check is...

Customer Defaults -> Drafting -> Section Line

...and check what the 'Create Section Line' option is defaulted to.

Yes, I checked and running on 7.5.4.4. Will wait for update. Will be happening soon. Will check it then. Also, did check customer defaults and they are set with 'Create Section Line' turned on, but does not help.

Thank you
