    @D8_Starpac I am not able to reproduce your issue. Did you create a support ticket?

    @D8_Starpac thank you for the clarification - seems to be an issue with ISO drawing formats only. I will escalate.

    @D8_Starpac the developer has fixed the bug.  It just needs to go through testing and then hopefully it will be pushed live later today. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Hello,
    We need enhancement in CORE MODELING TOOLS. Especially addition of NURBS modeling tools like Subdivision modeling.

    @3dcad
    Yea that has happened to me once too, but using crop view, I think it has something to do with mine being a section view.

    Now that I've submitted a ticket

    @john_mcclary Is correct.  We don't support cuts of a cut yet in drawing views.  It's a logged/planned improvement.

    Yep, that's what it says on tooltip. My default workflow to add broken out section would be to make into detail view..

    On a view with a Broken-out section, I can't snap a cutting line to make a section view.
    Doing it the other way round will work.
    Could this be fixed ?
