Jogged section not corresponding with section view

I made a simple test file that shows the issue. I found out the issue in a real-world design case, and constructed this file to replicate the bug.

The file contains a 3D-text that is rotated from two pivot points. On both sides there’s a jogged section that follows the overall shape. The generated section views are on the side.

From the picture above, you can already see major issues. For instance, in the front section “WHAT RO” is completely missing, and “TATED” should be viewed directly from front as here it’s rotated.


The live section clips it correctly.

On the back section, the “S” is missing, and the “ROTATED” should be viewed directly from front.

Hi @Toni_Osterlund,

Regarding the missing letters, this is clearly a bug.

But a jogged section is just a normal section with multiple planes cutting the geometry, but there is a single view direction, taken from the first segment on the section. View is not oriented on each segment. This is a different feature, that we call “Unrolled sections”, that we plan to support on future versions of VisualARQ (not VisualARQ 3 for sure).

Hi @enric
Thank you for the clarification - I was not aware of this.
