Yes this is one of my pet peeves. Section_elevation is only half implemented.
Nothing worse than having to wait for a rebuilding then notice a ceiling not meeting a wall. Going back the plan - find the ceiling adjust then redraw the section again. Then again for some other glitch.
While we are at it how about a non redraw option. Just because you have changed the size of a window on the other side of the building your section doesnt need to be redrawn.

But that's not the whole story. We can talk all we want about a future ripe with the exchange of intelligent model data, but at present I'm in the business of producing documents. While these may be printed or electronic, and certainly we are all including more renderings and animations, the fact is the building industry still depends on lots of annotated, dimensioned 2D views.

3D is good for the big picture and is also a good indicator of how things will look in elevation. But sections are such technical documents. I'm forever trying to get the joint lines and composites looking right. All with minimal drafting tricks of course.
