Plane Section
AR3S was formerly known as ARES.
The Plane Section is used to draw a flexible cross section through the object and is suitable for the examination of internal structures of models.
How-To Steps

- You can choose between two Clipping Side modes – Positive and Negative
- Positive: Your object will be hidden. Cut with the plane through your object and render the components visible
- Negative: Cut with the plane through your object and render the components invisible
- Change the Clipping Side setting by tapping on Positive or Negative
- By grabbing the plane and moving it around you cut through the model, adjusting which components will be rendered visible/invisible

- Flubbed up? – Tap the Undo button in the Interaction menu to reverse the most recent manipulation
