Define a Horizontal Section

Architectural, Framer

You can create a horizontal section of the building model from the desired height. You can enter the height as a numerical value or you can click it in the model. The horizontal section works in the same way as the vertical section. After you have updated the section view, you can add it to a drawing sheet.

  1. Do one of the following:
    • Select Output | Drawings | Define Cross Section View > Define a Horizontal Section.
    • Select the function in the project's document browser:
      1. Move the cursor on the title Architectural documents / Horizontal sections.
      2. Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
      3. Select Define Horizontal Section.
  2. Select the section view settings in a dialog box.

Building components, such as cabinets and other furniture, are also truly cut if they are on the section line.

You can add the section view on a drawing sheet by using the function Add a Drawing to a Sheet.
