I really have the feeling Saul Goodman is explaining this to me. Couldn't be more clear. Thanks!

[@clairhann183]

Very straight forward. I didn't know Bob Odenkirk did Solidworks videos, thanks!

[@szymonmarciniak6624]

Brilliant explanation. Thank you for your help!

[@xhuyentran]

Thank you so much! It helped a lot because I needed to see the view to an edge :)

Ok, cool. Now show me how to show the cutting plane line required for this section view.

[@murdakah]

You sir, saved my day.

[@StefanMrsevic]

Last minute help. Man you are the Jupiter!

[@tkzsfen]

thank you, you don't know how tiring is to search for something, of which you are 100% sure that exists, but no one can tell you where to look for it.

[@MAMotinSobujsobuj23]

Wow ! Thank you sir...........

[@cristianorescu7401]

im using a solidworks in 2020 version, and still works the same way

[@ravindulakshitha3902]

This is really good explaining.

[@goengineer]

Thank you! We appreciate you watching.

A video on walkthrough animation in SOLIDWORKS is currently on youtube. Sir , if you are planning to post a tutorial please consider the above topic.

[@nosin89]

thanx man

[@gebregebre4086]

How far from the center is the plane you sketched on? This is really important. Reference depth could be simple you just pick where you want to cut , but when you give depth you should know where your plane is. Thank you for your explanation.

[@DeJeR]

Is it possible to use a plane to define the section depth?

[@goengineer]

Presently the program does not let you select planes to use as the depth reference in a Broken Out Section View.

[@zongchuanjiang1898]

good references

[@goengineer]

+Zongchuan Jiang We're happy you found these useful.

+1000 internets to you

[@rumnahal]

this helped me out, thanks but you do need to get to the point. ;)

Not helpful at all. I draw the spline loop on the drawing view and hit the "Broken-out Section" button on the toolbar, and only the "pencil" for drawing a spline appears. The "Broken-out Section" dialog box never appears as it does in your video. That's the problem with most of these Solidworks tutorials - there are no fallbacks. We are screwed if it doesn't work exactly like the video. I have SW 2013.

Thanks. But ugh turn down that intro music!
