Creating a Horizontal 2D Elevation
Use this procedure to create a horizontal section or elevation of a plan view.
The Hidden Line control available in AutoCAD Architecture makes it possible
to create horizontal sections and elevations of Plan views. With a horizontal
section or elevation, you can look down on the model. Previously, users
could achieve that effect only by manually changing the UCS. Now, a tool
enables you to create a horizontal section or elevation. This feature could be
useful for creating a detailed display of sill components in tapered walls.
The illustration below displays a horizontal section line for an irregularly
shaped building.

The illustration below displays the view results. Note the sill displays of the
tapered walls and the correct representation of the sloped curtain walls.
