The Edit function group of the Views tab contains functions for the definition and modification of cut-outs, sectional and detail views.
|
Update sectional views in active sheet/model Automatically updates, after the transformation of a 3-D model, sectional and detail views of the active sheet view or model view. Clicking |
|
Activates the New cut-out dialogue window enabling you to define new cut-out views. Clicking |

Clip plane for shaded view, parallel to screen plane You can use so-called "clip planes" to cut shaded 3-D models dynamically with the mouse. This is useful, for example, if you want to see or display the interior of a shaded model. The clip plane runs parallel to the screen plane. Clicking |
|
Enables a subsequent modification of sectional views. Clicking |
|
Enables a subsequent modification of detail views. |
|
Displays an active view in shortened representation. You can also use this function for the modification of already shortened views. Clicking |

View marking according to arrow method With this function, views can be marked according to the arrow method. This method allows you to represent the viewing direction of a derived view in the original view by the use of a corresponding symbol and a view marking. In mechanical engineering, for example, the viewing direction is marked by an arrow and in civil engineering by a circle with a triangle, with the view marking in the circle. |

This function enables you to assign a caption to the active view. |

Deletes the active view. Clicking |
opens a menu with the 
You have the possibility to assign a special representation to 3-D parts in individual views. This applies to surface colour, edge colour and transparency.
