Section viewport rendering issues

[LarryO]

These are glitches that should eventually be addressed for section viewports.

1. Radial lines showing when smoothing angle should be preventing them.

2. Invisible objects  being rendered when they are in visible symbols. Symbol contains two visible objects and the one invisible object. The invisible object is a 3D square tubing object with a class that sets its line weight and has been subject to solid subtraction to permit material use and then grouped to control visibility via class designation being applied to the group.

 

I was attempting to use the front view (on the right) but there is no means to restrict the depth of field to prevent objects in the background from being displayed. So I attempted to use a section viewport (on the left) to exclude objects that are further back in my model.

I think that this is about the visibility of groups not being taken into account by the hidden line rendering routine used in the for section viewports tool.
