Steps to Accomplish

  1. In the Design Model > Place a Section Callout where needed.
  2. Create Drawing > Make sure you create both the Drawing Model and the Sheet Model.
    You have now created the Sheet Model needed to place all the other Sections Cuts on.

      4. In the Sheet Model > Use the Reference Dialog to move the Sections Cuts into their correct locations on the Sheet.
