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