Summary
Section plane objects create sections of 3D solids, surfaces, and meshes. Use
live sectioning with section plane objects to analyze a model, and save sections
as blocks for use in layouts.
List of Options
The following options are displayed.
Face or Any Point to Locate Section Line Specifies a face to establish the
plane of the section object.
Alternatively, you can select any point on the screen that is not on a face to
create a section object independent of the solid or surface. The first point
establishes a point around which the section object rotates.
 Through point. Sets a second point that defines the plane of the section
object.
Draw section Defines the section object with multiple points to create a
section line with jogs.
This option creates a section object in the Section Boundary state with live
sectioning turned off.
Orthographic Aligns the section object to an orthographic orientation relative
to the UCS.
