Define parts in section view / Drawings

in Drawings
How can I define which parts are to be displayed in a section view and which are not? For example norm parts
Best regards,

Right click the view > Show/hide > Show/hide parts.
Depending on the complexity of your drawing view, you can also Show/hide edges. After the edges are hidden, you can right click the part and edit hatching, set this to general > none.

@Axel_Collmenter, Hi =) You can do it individually. Right click on section view, then choose "Edit section" function in appeared menu, then choose parts, which you want to exclude (at least, it works in 2025 year, sorry for late).
