Limit a 3D Model in the Direction of the Coordinate Axes
You can limit a model's visibility with a planar face in the direction of the coordinate axis X, Y or Z, when the model display method selected is shading. After selecting the function, a rectangular polyhedron is drawn around the model, from which you can click the limiting face. When you move the limiting face in the model, the model is cut.
