Today, CATIA is used to design anything from an airplane to jewelry and clothing. CATIA can be applied to a wide variety of industries, from aerospace, automotive, andĢ industrial machinery, to electronics, shipbuilding, plant design, and consumer goods. It addresses all manufacturing organizations from OEMs through their supply chains, to small independent producers. To help you to understand a little faster I made a video tutorial about how to use Sectioning command in to an assembly.1 CATIA V5R21 - FACT SHEET Introduction What s New at a Glance Overview Detailed Description INTRODUCTION CATIA V5 is the leading solution for product success.

To edit a finished Section, you should navigate to the Tree at Application parent and just double click on it.

This option it is very useful when you work with large assemblies that can crash you CATIA app if you use the Automatic Update feature. The last tab, Behavior, help us to freeze a Section, or to select if you want to change something in it, to be automated updated the section or to be updated manually.
