Solid element operations... Plan view

Anonymous
Not applicable
If i have wood decking (made from beam tool) and I use an operator to cut a diagonal edge across the whole lot of these decking pieces, the deck has a nice clean edge in the 3d perspective view. However, in plan view the decking pieces (beams) do not appear to be cut by the operator.

How to I get the plan view to take the subtraction? I am using ArchiCAD 16 by the way.

Excellent feedback, thank you. Unfortunately we're on ArchiCAD version 22 but I will definitely explore the opening tool when we transition to 23.
