Since there are so many ways to do this, the best way for someone to help you is if you can show a picture of what you want to do.

There is a tab called Model Effects in the Section/Elevation Selection Settings that may do what you want.

Perhaps you already have the rendering you want to use but it is not to the scale you would like. You can use the Resize tool (Ctrl-K) and stretch your image so that some item in the rendering of a known dimension matches a line you have drawn at that length in the scale you are working in.

Is it a Sketch render you want? Shaded?

In 3d mode, you can select in the Infobox the geometric method called flat (the last box on the right), copy and paste to scale what ever you have surrounded by the box. Will that help?

section elevation doesn't work in the way i want.
i have some problems with finding out the second tool you have mentioned.
maybe i will try to explain you what i want to do.
I would like to have elevation views like in 3ds for example: front, back.
i want it to look like 2D but with all colours and textures. in crossection elevation all is black and white.

This is the geometric selection method box to select in 3d mode to surround the thing you want to copy and paste at scale.

You can probalby get what you want from the Section/Elevation Settings with theses settings.

If you want to have nice hi-res rendering for use in your elevation, make the rendering first. Then place it into your drawing with the Figure Tool.

Use the Resize tool to adjust the image to scale.

If you need help doing this let me know.

(I should note that this is a sample rendering from the internet, not one of mine)
