    HI
    We have the possibility to make a cut view in the 3D assy.
    I would like to use the same cut view in a drawing.
    Is it possible, and how?
    TIA

    Honestly, the quickest way I do it all the time is to make a derived
    configuration in your assembly, orient the view the way you want (and
    save that view), then cut it the way you want it. (make sure you set
    the configuration of that cut feature to be suppressed in all other
    configurations you have)

    Next in your drawing, bring the view in and set the configuration of
    that view to the derived configuration...
