Section Node

(Section node) creates a dynamic view section and drawings.

  1. Add a Section node to the Graph. There are no techniques to select from. Its required input ports are visible on the node.
  2. For the ClipVolume input, you must create a ClipVolume node. The clip volume required input is CoordinateSystem. Draw a wire from the CoordinateSystem port to the overall node on the baseCS node.
  3. Move the section plane on the clip volume by dragging the green arrow downwards so it intersects your model.
  4. Click next to the ViewNumber port. Enter 4 in the expression field for View number 4. The section is displayed in View 4.
