Sections and interior elevations

Cut building sections, wall sections and interior elevations from the plan, each on a sheet of its own that follows the model.

Cut a building section

In plan, choose Section (⌥S, Tools › Annotate).
Click the cut line's two ends (they snap as Measure does; Shift turns snapping off).
Point to the side the section looks at, and press Return (or click a third time on that side).

The section sees 20 m beyond its line. It gets a sheet of its own, from A-301, listed in the Sheets tab like any other.

Cut a wall section or interior elevations

With Section on, press Tab before you click:

once for a wall section: the same cut, a narrow 1 m deep view drawn larger, on sheets from A-311;
twice for interior elevations: click a room and its four walls are elevated, on sheets from A-401.

Clip

a section line drawn across the plan, the A-301 sheet it makes, then interior elevations of a room

Follow a section between plan and sheet

Plan draws every section line dashed with a bubble at each end and an arrow to the side it looks at; an interior elevation's bubble sits in its room. Click a bubble to open its sheet.
On a sheet, a floor plan's section mark links to its section.
On a section sheet, click a cut face to select its element.

Sections are cut again each time the set is drawn, so they follow every edit. Each section is an edit you can undo. The agent can cut and flip sections too.
