Hi all, I am trying to create section view along the center line of ramp but the section created is not visible in revit. Please let me know why is it behaving like this. So If I check the sectionview by its element id then it says no good views are available to view. Please let me know how I can create a section along the centerline of ramp. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/8/1/81c7274e7da833fe171b6858ba83028646d94744.png) ![Section](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/2/7/27461873cbb51a45a6fc8617a996c0681fecb1d0.png) ---

If it is a single ramp, i would use grids and Refplanes to place structural views. They have the ability to use Refplanes and grids as a reference. ![2022-03-17_10h19_53](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/1/4/142ff95d5e2ed029e091b510ec409099cdd9f196.png) ---

Hi @Draxl_Andreas I have tried that but I dont want like this. If I take the section it should give me the whole cut section taken along its center line. At the circular portion we cant able to place that framing elevation. Please let me know how to take the section along a path ---

Finally I got the solution Here is the script file. Custom node taken from “Bakery” package is used in the script [ViewSection.ByLine.dyn](https://forum.dynamobim.com/uploads/short-url/4KIUZBt0Y2RtP05Ysipg9yZQmni.dyn) (50.6 KB) ---

Hello @electroman this post its a bit old, and i dont recommend use bakery at all it gives conflict to other packages…try show us whats wrong…and you could probably use section ootb or try section by line from datashapes ---

Thank you sovitek. I wa sable to install bakery with no warnings. Initially I used an axis for the select object node but gives me an error on the 3drd node, so I tried with a line and this seems to work better. Error happen only at the end node. I attach you a picture. I haven’t ![error](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/3/6/36b6c1117da98da3091b33400fcc35d4655939c7.jpeg) changed anything on the .dyn code. ---
