How to refer a section which is in different class in Pega 7.

It is still same in Pega 7, while including section we have an option of specifying a Page context which could be a diff clipboard page and then we need to specify the class.
Please find screenshot below and let us know if this helps.

I think the issues here is the container. I am assuming you are trying to drag a section in a cell within grid layout ?
If you try to include a section in dynamic layout, you will get that option. Can you confirm where are you trying to include this section ?

Just creating a wrapper section should still resolve the issue. Create a wrapper section at same class level and from that section do a section include using clipboard page.
Let us know if this solves your issue.

Yes. As you said i am using the section inside a Grid layout. Interesting thing about this is, the section i am about to place there is not from the PageList of the Grid. But The sections that i can add there should be from the parent section and not the pagelist class.
What is a wrapper section? How do i create one? Can you please help me with that. Never tried that before.

Wrapper section in this context will be nothing but a plain section including the section you want.
E.x. If you were trying to include a section Section1 with Using page Page1
You will create a new section with any name like WrapperSection1 in the same class as grid row class.
In WrapperSection1 use dynamic layout and section include your original section Section 1 using clipboard page Page1.
Now use the WrapperSection1 inside grid column directly.

Hi,
If the page referred is present in the clipboard then it will display all the fields in run time.
