Posted this on AUGI forum so thought I should share it.

Stumbled on a tip when working in an IDW and using the Breakout command. Started breakout, selected the view, then chose From Point. This is where it gets interesting. I could not see an edge of the item I wanted to break through on this view so I chose a point on the part FROM ANOTHER VIEW. And it works. Absolutely rapped with this one.

Good tip to know! Sometimes I struggle with the Breakout View, choosing the right point. I'll have to give it a try the next time I'm doing a breakout view!
