Hello,

when I use the "clip plane" view the "cutting area" of the solids always have the same plane gray and not the color of the solids.
I think a colored cutting area will be much more clearly, especially when you have few assembled parts:

Is there an option in the program to switch the "cut" color from gray to the same color as the solid has?

Thank you,
Harald

Hello,

have found out, that the color of the cutted area is not always grey, as I think first.
The cutted area shows the color oft the infinite plane, used to clip. :eek:

Be hopeful, that this bug is eliminated in the next building of ViaCad Pro,[COLOR="red"] Tim please![/COLOR]
I often have to create parts, where they stick each into another and the clip plane function would be very very helpful if it works as it should.

Thank you,
Harald
