Hello folks,
I'm having issues sectioning through an assembly. It seems the sectioning plane (yellow) cannot be adjusted. It way out of size with arrows being to far away from my assembly. I tried resizing the default xyz planes, checked if a part was floating out in la la land, checked the origin point, but still no luck. Any ideas? See attached file.

Thanks,

Try changing the distance may be by a very little value and see if you can section.

I figured it. It was a sketch point that was turned off.
Thanks
