I am having trouble trying to section a part in an assembly, without sectioning the whole assembly.
I am trying to show on the drawing a sectioned block, with a screw not sectioned in the block - but when I do the section, it always cuts the full assembly including the screw.
Can anyone please help me?
I am sure it is something simple, but it has really got me stumped!!
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Using Pro/E 4.

In the drawing cross section properties menu there is an exclude/restore toggle cycle through the parts with the next button until you get to the screw then exclude it. You will have to update the drawing view(s) to see the result.
