I often need to create curves by intersecting surfaces. I tend to create a CPlane where I need the section, then create a planar surface on that CPlane, then use intersect to create curves. Finally I hide or delete the CPlane.
Is there a way to create section curves by using the actual CPlane to intersect with geometry? It would cut out the step of creating the planar surface. No biggy, but it would save a few seconds (it all adds up).
If there’s a way to do it, I’ve missed it. Thanks for any suggestions offered.
FYI, in V6 there is an IPlane (= temporary Infinite Plane) tool always available for any operation where a planar surface could be used. The tool has many ways to define the plane, including Cplanes and named CPlanes.
