Section Views
In this chapter, you will learn to create section
views. You can create section views to display the
interior portion of a component that cannot be
shown clearly by means of hidden lines. This can be
done by cutting the component using an imaginary
plane. In a section view, section lines, or cross-hatch
lines are added to indicate the surfaces that are cut
by the imaginary cutting plane. In AutoCAD, you
can add these section lines or cross-hatch lines using
the Hatch tool.
The Hatch tool
The Hatch tool is used to generate hatch lines by
clicking inside a closed area. When you click inside a
closed area, a temporary closed boundary will be
created using the PLINE command. The closed
boundary will be filled with hatch lines, and then it
will be deleted.
Select the Hatch lines layer from the Layer
drop-down.
