 * Important: The Section Cut feature works poorly with OpenCASCADE 7.4 and older due to bugs. It is therefore recommended to use OpenCASCADE 7.5 or newer (all builds of FreeCAD assure this).
 * : The option Cut intersecting objects will color all visible parts the same. This can technically not be avoided. However, if one needs the persistent cut for e.g. a presentation, see the method described above how to reset the color manually.
 * : In assemblies parts that intersect each other cannot be cut. Normally intersecting objects will not be cut while the others will. However, sometimes the cutting can produce strange results which is a bug in the OpenCASCADE libraries. To get a cut view also for intersecting objects, you can use the the macro Cross Section.
 * : Especially when using the A2plus workbench, some the assembled parts can overlap each other by just a micron due to internal rounding errors. To fix this, add a micron as space in the constraint settings.
 * There can be color artifacts in the cut result. If and how depends on the OpenCASCADE library and also on the view position. In many cases the color artifacts disappear when the 3D view is slightly rotated.
 * When having cut objects with different colors, it is not possible to apply automatically their color to the corresponding cut faces. All cut faces will get the same color selected in the dialog.
 * When using the A2plus workbench, it is not possible to apply automatically the color of the assembled parts to the corresponding cut faces. All cut faces will get the same color selected in the dialog. The reason is that A2plus does not input the parts as link but loads them as file.
