Clipping Planes- Used to be able to set a Clipping Plane setting to show the clipped plane as solid surface instead of “hollow” as in this pic - [image] I’ve looked all through HELP on Clipping Planes, and all through the Properties. Can no longer find the setting to allow the flat clipped surfac…

Thanks ALL ! John - I CAN see why it would need to be closed, but sometimes I have to do a clipping plane on an open object. Pascal’s comments are appropriate to my situation, tho, so I can DEFINITELY see both sides. _ _ Connected but slightly different - A greater benefit to me would be the a…

Thanks, cashed, so now I can ask - what happens if you have a tube, say, a pipe with wall thickness with one cap missing so it’s open and the clipping plane cuts across it- how does the normal direction affect the display of the clipped plane? What does an open cylinder show at the clipping plane…

It should behave in all cases like Boolean would. Or like the cap command would also? Tube with thickness, one capped end and open end? Clipping plane caps it. Normals pointing inward? Don’t cap it. open cylinder show at the clipping plane cutting across it if the normals point in? Cap it! How ab…

[image] gustojunk: Or like the cap command would also? This seems more useful and expected, to me, than letting the normals and Booloean logic enter into it. Just cap all closed loops at the plane. You’d get some unexpected or possibly not useful displays with open cylinders inside other open…

I’ll settle for that. I think having a capping toggle in there display tab makes sense.

Yeah, controls for various situations would be nice, but being able to de-select affected components is an actual thing, making it usable BOTH for Product presentations AND technical drawing Ortho AND ISO Views. Guys, this is an ACTUAL thing. This would be a HUGE enhancement. I’d even be able to BON…

Lots of words there and lots of all caps emphasis, but I can’t tell what you actually mean - showing fills from clipping planes is in the display panel currently for shaded views. -Pascal

Really pretty simple, actually. I give reasons for each of the 2 follow-on questions and the questions themselves. Takes a moment, yes, but would have been nice to get a response to either ofr both of those questions.- - -I know things go real fast on your end, so I get it, I really do. BUT (see wh…

Ok, took you as far as I can. I EVEN (;=) ! ) carved out the questions so you could see them by themselves. With NO attempt to deal with the point at hand, you dismiss the input because there was some CAPS included in the reply. That there was no more there than in THIS one, or that the means and ba…
