Part Section/en

Description
The Part Section command creates wire geometry at the intersections of two objects. The result is fully parametric.


 * An intersection of two solids/faces results in one or more section lines.
 * An intersection of two lines, or a line and a solid/face, results in one or more points.



Usage

 * 1) Select two objects.
 * 2) The first object will be the  of the Section, but the selection order has no impact on the result.
 * 3) There are several ways to invoke the command:
 * 4) * Press the button.
 * 5) * Select the option from the menu.
