Set 3D Limits

You can restrict the visibility of an object using a planar face. The planar face can be a face in the direction of the coordinate axis, or a face in the direction of a face indicated in the model. When you move the limiting face in the model, the objects are cut.

1. Do one of the following:
   • Select Set 3D Limits from the tool strip.
   • Select View | Limiting | Set.
   • Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu, and select Set 3D Limits.

   A rectangular polyhedron is drawn around the model.

2. Do either of the following.
   • Select a face of the rectangular polyhedron around the model as the limiting face.
   • Press the Delete key, and select any surface in the model as the limiting surface, for example a roof slope surface.
3. Move the limiting face using the mouse.
4. Select the limit point by clicking the left mouse button.
5. Do either of the following:
   • Continue by limiting the model in the direction of another face.
   • Select Confirm. The limited model remains visible.
   • Press the Esc key. The entire model is restored visible.
