  3. Right click on the module and select Open->Exclusive Edit
  4. Go to Tools -> Edit DXL
  5. From DXL Interaction window, click on Browse
  6. Expand "Some example programs which illustrate various DXL features" selection
  7. Select "Example to remove sections from all objects in display set"
  8. Click Run
