Section Cut Face Plugin Sketchup Free6/15/2023 Just open the group for editing, select the unwanted face and hit the Delete key. There’s an unwanted face in the center but it is easy enough to remove. I prefer to keep the cut edges thin so I set them to 1 and I wanted to be able to see all of the edges so I chose ‘No’ for Hide Edges.Īfter clicking on OK, The section cut faces are created and made into a group. Right click on the section plane and choose Add Section-Cut Face from the Context menu.Ī dialog box pops up to make some adjustments. The green in the model is the inside faces of the components. The section cut can also be rotated if desired. Then the Move tool is used to move the section cut to the desired location. The section plane is then placed on a surface oriented to the desired section cut.Ĭlicking the mouse places the section on that surface. To start, I clicked on the Section Plane tool on the Sections toolbar. Here’s a demonstration using a planter model designed by a friend of mine. You can use the faces to simply hide the inside of the components you’re looking at or make a pattern if needed. The faces are geometry that can be manipulated or moved if needed. This plugin takes sections a step further by quickly creating faces at the location of the section cut. Tim’s post about using sections to show details reminded me of another handy plugin called SectionCutFace.
