Adds the selected section view to an existing 3D model view listed in the Model Views collection on PathFinder. The section is not applied unless the model view is being edited or viewed.

Remove from Model View

Edit Definition

Opens the selected section view so you can edit it. The Section command bar is displayed for you to click the step you want to change.

Delete

Deletes the section view(s) selected on PathFinder.
