I am trying to section af simple part, consisting of a tube with an internal groove following a helix.
If the helix runs clockwise SolidWorks can't section it using the right plane. Instead it displays the following message:
"The model could not be probably sectioned by the section line.
Please check that the section line cuts through the model."
However, if i set the exact same helix to run counterclockwise it's not a problem at all, and SolidWorks will section it probably.
The error carries on to drawings and assemblies, e.g. it can't section them either.
I hope you can help me find a solution.
Part file is attached.
