Hello All,
This is just a question for open discussion.
When I make 3D sections from the section plane I end up loosing the layer and color information.
Does that present a problem to anyone out there who makes and uses 3D sections?
How do you all work with this ?
I have only started using this feature about a month and it's not uncommon for me to cut six or seven sections for a drawing. I am able to recreate the layer structure and put the solids back where they go but It is time consuming for this many sections. What is really frustrating is when the boss wants something moved or added that affects the section so then I need to remake it and reassign the layer info again. I must say however, it's not near as time consuming as the 2D section. Anyone know if you can cut sections in inventor and maintain the layer structure.
Thanks, Have a good weekend
Mike
