Slice through model to display half, quarter, or three-quarter views.
What's New:
2019.2
Create a section view to see inside your model. A section view does not modify geometry.
Use a planar face or plane to slice away a portion of a model temporarily.
Section views can be saved in design view representations.
After you select a section view, you can right-click and select Flip to cycle through available views. Quarter and three-quarter views can show the opposite view.
To move a section plane, right-click and select Virtual Movement Section Plane 1 (or Section Plane 2). Then drag the section plane, set its offset, or rotate the mouse wheel.
Note: Both the quarter or three-quarter section view allow selection of any two planes, not just perpendicular planes. You can define the type of section cut and display sectional slices, if desired.

Controlling the Scroll Wheel Step Size
You can specify an incremental value that is applied when you roll between scroll wheel detents during the section view command.
- Start the Section View command.
- Right-click in the display and in the context menu, click Scroll Step Size.
- In the dialog, specify the distance value used by the scroll wheel as you roll it.
- Click the green check to close the dialog box. Subsequent mouse wheel rolling uses the specified value.
