Control Section Depth and Improve Readability

Section depth controlled for drawings people can actually read.

  1. In a true Section view, open depth controls:
    • Right-click the section marker → Go To View.
  2. Adjust depth/far visibility:
    • Use View Depth / Far Clip (via view properties or Graphic Display Options as applicable).
  3. Reduce how far the view looks to strengthen hierarchy:
    • A shorter depth increases contrast between cut geometry and distant context.
  4. Validate readability:
    • Cut elements should read strongest.
    • Background elements should fade (lighter/less prominent).
