Syntax
config section planar <name>=<value>
config section spherical <name>=<value>
Arguments
- planar
- Define the planar section cut options.
- base=<value value value>
- Enter user-defined x, y, and z coordinates to check the current position of the section cut.
- clipabove=<true/false>
- Select true or false.
- clipelements=<true/false>
- Display the elements of the clipped part of the model.
- crosssectiononly=<true/false>
- Display a cross section of the section cut.
- deformable=<true/false>
- Make the deform mode deformable.
- grid=<true/false>
- Display the gridlines.
- gridlinespacex=<value>
- Enter a value to change the x position of the graphical manipulator on the grid line grid.
- gridlinespacey=<value>
- Enter a value to change the y position of the graphical manipulator on the grid line grid.
- gridtext=<true/false>
- Display the grid line text value in the modeling window.
- gridtextprecision=<1-10>
- Increment the current grid line text value from 0 to 10 decimal points.
- normal=<value value value>
- Specify a plane normal to the screen by picking a base node on the model.
- orientation=<3nodes/normaltoscreen/xaxis/yaxis/zaxis>
- Define the orientation. Options include:

- Display the section cut in the modeling window.
Example
config section spherical visibility=true showsectioncolor=true sectioncolor=Cyan clipinside=true centernode=60
Comments
Default values specified by this command will be used by all spherical and planar section cuts.
