    Sketch during section view

    I cannot understand the logic behind the features (or lack thereof) within this program. I'm trying to draw a sketch within a part, but I need to be in a section view. I can turn on the section view that I need, then enter the sketch, but the section view automatically turns off. Is this...

    Extrude but not Merge
