Hello,
I often create x-secs in NX by using pre-defined Datum(s)of mine. But once those datums are being altered (new angle, distance etc.), I can't see simultaneously the effect on the x-sec. Instead I need to go the x-sec window back and select (altered) "my Datum" again.

Is it possible to create dynamically updatedable x-sec linked to datums?

I have a suggestion.
Instead of taking the cross section with the plane and solid bodies, try creating a cross section with section curves and the plane that will be associative [as long as "associative" is checked ON] when the plane is moved.
