Need Assistant - How to create unfolded Cut Section

[_Rhino_User]

Hey,

I am searching for a Grasshopper way to create “unfolding” Cut Sections.
Also with a projection to the XY-Plane to see it in the Top View.

If i only use a Surface on each segment of the cut section, i have later a Problem if i have Meshs which intersect with my section, so i think placing planes on each line could be helpfull.

Every kind of object need to be cutted, and also a ability to project a object from a far distance.

@Rhino Team:
Are u thinking about updating the _clippingplane that its can also use polylines, lines, arches and more ?

Revit cant do it, only Autocad Civil with “Axes”. But maybe there is a Grasshopper way.

Files: A simple script how i started, not finished. And a 3D Model with a Curve, this Curve is the Section line.

I am still looking for a solution. Here is a visual explanation of what I need, and what ‘unfolded Cut Section’ means

Data input:
3D VIEW:

Cut Section and Result
(Result would be Curves or Surfaces along the Cut Section unfolded and Projected on XY Plane.)
TOP DOWN VIEW:

I just let it go, it came out pretty unnecessarily convoluted, but it might be a starting point
