Inventor - rib section hatch.

When sectioning a part through a rib, hatching is applied also to the rib in the section view. How to avoid the rib hatch?

If the rib is a separate part in an assembly, you can suppress its hatching with the Visibility setting in the view (right mouse click) or via the filters.

If the rib is only a feature in a part, you can suppress the hatching only by doing some changes:

either use a multibody part and disable the drawing view hatching via the body filter
or select the hatch, turn it off (right mouse button) and use the Project Geometry to draw edges for a new, manual hatching
