I have made a section view and the section line extends way out past of the edge of the part on both sides system created and the only thing I can move are the arrows either up or down. I can not find anyway to move the section line left or right. I want to be able to move the section line with arrows so its closer to edge of the part. In Pro-Engineer you just grab the drag handles on the line and move it where you want it left or right and you can also move the arrows up or down.
Next I have a part with a Dowel pin assembled in it. I want to make a simple Dimension from the edge of the part to the bottom of the dowel pin, please note the dowel pin has a rounded bottom. No matter what I do Solidworks refuses to make this simply dimension and I don't see any options offered. In Pro-Engineer for this the system would ask if you want the dimension to be tanget to the rounded bottom of the dowel pin and you click yes and the dimesion is created.
I'm running Solidworks 2014 and have looked at Youtube which is hit and miss and will soon be getting Solidworks 2014 book.
