Description
The Cross-sections utility creates one or more cross-sections through the selected shape.
Usage
- Select a shape.
- Press the
Cross-sections button.
- Define the guiding plane.
- Define the position (height of the cross-section).
- Optionally, check Sections to create more than one cross-section:
- Checking On both sides will distribute the cross-sections on each side of the guiding plane location.
- Set the count.
- Press OK.
Limitations
- The resulting object is not parametric, that is it is not linked to the original shape.
- A single object is created, even with more than one cross-section.
Example
- Primitives: Box, Cone, Cylinder, Sphere, Torus, CreatePrimitives, Shapebuilder
