Is anyone else having a problem with partial section views? Ido believe I have created partial sections in SW 2007 in the pastwith no problems. It seems that lately I have run into a fewinstances where a partial section view cannot be created in some ofmy assemblies
I sketch the section line, then select section view. I click onpartial section, and auto hatching then click ok. I get a messageexplaining what a section view is and that I should enable partialsection (which I've done). Then I get another message stating themodel could not be properly sectioned by the section line andtelling me to extend it through the model.
I dont want to extend it through the model. That kind of defeatsthe purpose of a partial section doesn't it?
Oh well enough of that rant. A possible work around just occurredto me. I will create the section as a complete section, then cropthe sectioned view. I hope that works. I hate when I have to exportto AutoCrap and edit views there.
Any ideas as to why it works sometimes and not others will beappreciated.SolidworksDrawings And Detailing
