Summary


Details

In the Lightweight Section View dialog, the 'Section Name' is grayed out and 
unable to be modified. Also, if the Lightweight Section View is created, there 
is no 'Rename' option under MouseButton3 in the Part Navigator. 
How can the Section Name be changed?



Solution

 Under the 'Cutting Plane' Symbol group in the Lightweight Section View dialog, 
if 'View Name Format' is set to a either 'A' or 'A-A', this controls the naming 
format of the view and can only be altered by specifying the 'Text' such as 
A,B, C, D. Once one of these options is used to name the Lightweight Section 
View, the view will NOT have a 'Rename' option under MouseButton3 in the Part 
Navigator.


Under the 'Cutting Plane' Symbol group in the Lightweight Section View dialog, 
if the 'View Name Format' is set to 'User Defined', the Section Name 
can be set as desired. This also allows the 'MB3-->Rename' option to appear in 
the Part Navigator since the name of the view has been set to 'User Defined'.
