Getting a 2D section from a 3D model

[indiancad]

One useful feature I don't see beginners using very often is SECTIONPLANE .

Instead of manually drawing the internal edges of a 3D part, you can place a section plane through the model and use Live Section to inspect the inside.

You can then generate a section block from the result for use in a drawing.

I find this especially useful when checking what is actually inside a complicated 3D model before creating the final 2D documentation.
