Is it possible to disable finalize/cancel when using 3d cutaway?
It's small, but I'm too lazy to click finalize all the time...

Yes, after moving the cutting plane you can just hit Enter instead of clicking Finalize. (Just tested it in AC24, should work in other versions too..)

Pls is short for please and cuz is short for because so I mean please Lee press finalize to get your model cut, thanks to you.

The annoying part is that the finalize button is not consistent in appearing in the same location, end up you still need to look for it. 😆

In the end what is your Objective?

I had the same problem before, it's frustrating to hunt for the tiny button that keeps moving around the screen for every time.

 

Then by accident I found you can just hit Return / Enter instead of clicking Finalize – made my life a tiny bit easier.

Hi @david_skogvold, you said just hit Return / Enter, that means pressing Enter or what? Sorry need to understand.

Great tip David, I was not aware of this neat little keyboard shortcut.
