Before you generate section views that contain ribs, web networks, patterns of ribs, or mounting bosses, you can specify that ribs are cut but hatching is not displayed on them.

After the section view is placed, you can use the Override Rib Hatching dialog box to review the list of ribs that were cut, and to select individual ribs where you want to show hatching.

1. Before you create a section view, do the following:

   1. Right-click the source view where you want to define a section and choose Properties.

   2. On the Advanced tab (Drawing View Properties dialog box), under Section View, clear the Hatch ribs in section view check box.

   3. Apply the change and update the drawing view.

2. Generate the section view by doing the following:

   1. Draw a cutting plane line.

   2. Create a section view.

3. Right-click the section view and choose Properties.

4. On the Display tab (Drawing View Properties dialog box), in the Parts list, right-click one of the part names and choose Override Rib Hatching.

5. All ribs that were cut during section view processing are listed in the Override Rib Hatching dialog box. For each rib in the list, do the following:

   1. Click the rib name to highlight the corresponding rib in the section view.

   2. Do one of the following:

      • To display hatching on a selected rib, check the box that precedes its name.

      • To show the rib without hatching, clear the check box.

6. Click OK to save the changes and close the Override Rib Hatching dialog box.

7. To see the changes in the section view, click Apply in the Drawing View Properties dialog box, and then update the drawing view.
