The Mesh SectionByPlane command creates a cross section across a mesh object. The cross section is a Part Feature.

Select a single mesh object and a single Part plane. The (extended) plane should intersect the mesh object.
Select the Meshes → Cutting → Create section from mesh and plane option from the menu.

Miscellaneous: Import mesh, Export mesh, Create mesh from shape, Regular solid, Unwrap Mesh, Unwrap Face
Modifying: Harmonize normals, Flip normals, Fill holes, Close hole, Add triangle, Remove components, Remove components by hand, Smooth, Refinement, Decimation, Scale

Boolean: Union, Intersection, Difference
