obj list = SECT/obj list1,WITH,obj[,CNT,c][,IFERR,label:]
Allows you to create cross-sections of one or more solids by specifying a series of solids and a cutting sheet body. This creates a set of curves marking the section outline where the cutting sheet body intersects the solids. SECT is similar to the SPLIT statement, but in this case the solid remains intact. The curves produced are nonparametric (i.e., they are not associated with the solids of the cutting sheet body).
To cross-section a sheet body using a plane or another sheet body, use the INTSEC command.

Description |
|
obj list1 |
A list of solids to be cross-sectioned. Maximum number allowed is 1000. |
|
WITH |
Minor word indicates that the solids listed are to be cross-sectioned by the following sheet body. |
|
obj |
The cutting sheet body. Must be either an analytic plane (type 46) or a cylindrical sheet body. |
|
CNT |
Optional minor word indicates that a count of curves is to be returned. |
|
c |
Variable which returns the number of curves created for the cross-section. |
|
IFERR,label: |
Specifies a label to which program execution jumps if an error occurs. Possible errors include: invalid cutting sheet type; maximum number of objects exceeded, etc. |
