Coords, Plane (Plane mode)
The cutting planes with Coords set to Camera.
Here, with the Coords parameter, you can choose which coordinate system is used for the cutting
planes: Local, World or Camera. With the Camera setting, the cutting planes will depend on the
direction in which the camera is pointing (see illustration above).
Use the Plane parameter to choose the cutting plane: XY, YZ or XZ.
Slice (Plane mode)
If enabled, this option creates a cut through the center of the object, which you can then offset using
the Offset value.
Cuts, Spacing (Plane mode)
The Cuts parameter allows you to create as many cuts in one go as you wish. It denes the number
of cuts. The Spacing value controls the distance between each cut. Note that the Slice option must
be disabled.
Magnet
With the magnet, you can pull sections out of polygon objects or splines. Click anywhere on the
object(s) and drag the mouse. The further the points are from the mouse pointer, the weaker the
magnet’s pull on them. If you hold down Shift while you drag, the points will be moved parallel to
the normal of the yellow highlighted point.
