To Exclude a Material From 2D Section Shrinkwrap

Use this procedure to exclude components with a specific material assigned to them from the shrinkwrap of a 2D section.

When you create a 2D section, you can display a section component named Shrinkwrap. The shrinkwrap is the union of all object faces cut by the section line, merged into one component with one hatch pattern. This is a view frequently used for a 2D section.

By default, all components that are assigned materials are included in the shrinkwrap. However, you may want to exclude certain materials, such as glass, from the shrinkwrap.
