Quick question...

I have created two dependant views so that my section fits onto two sheets. Problem is, the section head isn't displaying both sheets as a ref. Infact, it seems confused.

Tips, tricks or advice welcome.

Thanks

When you use dependant views from Sections, or elevations, the origial section cut is referencing the Parent of those dependant views. If you check, there may even be three section marks on top of each other. You'll have to work through the three. The mark pointing to the parent can be set to not display at scales corser than ... I use 3/8" so that it disappears from all plans. Either hide one of the others, or if this got fixed, then you'll have to create another section mark, referencing an "existing view" which would be one of the dependant views.

Thank you. It wasn't immediately apparent that there were 3 markers on top of each other. I see that you can just toggle off two section heads to leave the one you want.

Simple but not obvious.

Thanks again
