Same here especially with longitudinal sectional perspectives.
Rhino 6 “make2D” has significantly improved compared to the previous version. Still lacking in some parts of the model (for example, in those highlighted in yellow).
Is there still the possibility of further improvements (in precision and clean lines) in the development of this tool that is quite useful and important?
Thanks and good work Rajaa!
I’m still waiting for all possible closed regions per object option, which i need for every floorplan, elevation or section drawing that i’m doing.

Have you tried SectionTools? Sections created do close regions from same source objects, and allow you to specify hatches and caps for those.
Hi @raja,
I can’t use section tools because it doesn’t have a “view range”. It only works for the objects that are cut.
Please check my post from Aug '17 above where I describe some applications for this problem in “real life” cases.
This is how it’s done in revit:
I read the post from the top. If you are sectioning through objects (the 3 boxes you have in your example), SectionTools does return close regions based on source.
Now that is said, SectionTools does not have an Elevation functionality that does the same (figure out closed regions based on source). I’ll look into this one to see how this might be implemented. I’ll keep you posted on that.
As for the “view range”, I suppose this is useful for viewing the back objects, and to decide what parts to exclude when create elevation and sections? Some “Depth” value to be associated with a Section.
Those 3 boxes above are seen in projection not in section. (and in 3d view)
So, for example, if I do a building vertical section I will need to see the walls that are cut but also those in the back seen in projection. The ones seen in projection should also generate closed polylines .
Same for plans when I need to see the cut walls but also the contour of the slab below (so I can calculate areas and apply hatches), and also furniture.
Same for an urban planning drawing where all buildings are seen from above in projection and I need each and one of them to become a closed polysurface in order to apply hatches according to different characteristics.
Thanks for looking into this. Right now there’s huge amount of time wasted in closing polysurfaces.
If “all possible closed regions per object option” will be implemented it will become one of the most important feature for rhino6.
Yes, I understand your request perfectly. I will keep you posted with any progress.

Hi,
I guess this matter is somehow always open?
Is there maybe a workaround to be developed with Rhinocommon?

this is the most logical and consistent way.
