3D section in 3D view
Section Subdivisions
A 2D or 3D section object can have a number of subdivisions partitioning the
section object. This feature is useful when you want to create a view of the
object in which the parts that are closer to the viewer are drawn with darker
and stronger lines, and parts that are farther off are drawn lighter.

Live Section View
A live section view is a special view of a 3D section where the objects that are
sectioned are not converted to a 3D section object. Instead, the existing model
objects are displayed as a 3D section. The parts of the objects within the
bounding box of the section line keep their individual display components
while the parts of the objects outside of the section line can optionally be
displayed or hidden. To control the appearance of the object parts outside of
the section line, you need to assign a material to the sectioned objects. When
you render a live section, you can show the outside part as a half-transparent
addition, for example.
For more information, see Creating and Editing a Live Section View on page
3237.
Materials in Sections
In AutoCAD Architecture, you can assign materials to different components
of an object. These materials are displayed when you create a 2D or 3D section
