Section, 3Dclip, Camera, Transparancy

[ErwinMeulman]

Can somebody tell me what the best options is for a section in AutoCAD. I toggle with xref, layers on/off (edit xref in please) to get a clear work area. But mostly all xref and layers must be switch on to snap/model parts.

 

So I look for some options:

 

Camera options (not what I expect, I can work in this view, multi-camera's is good)

 

Livesection (only possible for solids and not for meshes, it's slowing down you system)

 

3Dclip (you can't same multiple sections, it's not what I expect)

 

So can somebody tell me what to use, maybe something like sketchup)

Revit is exactly what you need as far as your visibility control inquiry goes. However, I'm not sure if you're using any 3rd party add-ons to AutoCAD or if you're simply creating meshes on purpose. Meshes aren't supported in Revit, but that's a good thing since Revit is totally parametric, and is specifically designed for designing and modeling buildings.
