Make Section View only show cutted geometry on the cutting plane

Martin Walter

I'm using a 3D geometry made up from EXTRUDE commands for the section view.
But the section always shows a lot of lines that are not directy cut by the cutting plane. These lines are from geometry behind the cutting plane.
I already played with the masks of the EXTRUDE command. But I can not see any difference using different masks.

Is there a way to only show the cutted geometry that is on the cutting plane?

Change your line Status to 1 in the Extrude to hide lateral edges?

Yes that is the solution of course!
