Create Quick Section tool

A quick section is one that is quickly produced with a minimum of input. There is only one Quick Section per DGN file. If a new one is created, it replaces the existing one.

If the thickness is defined in the dialog box then it will not be prompted for when defining the section.

Setting	Description
Oriented Block by Axis	Creates a section by two points along the section axis and a point indicating thickness. The width of the block defines the width of the section. `KEY-IN:` `POINTCLOUDADV SECTION CREATEQUICK ORIBLOCKBYAXIS` `KEY-IN:` `REALITYMODEL SECTION CREATEQUICK ORIBLOCKBYAXIS`
Oriented Block	Creates a section by two points defining one edge of the section volume and a point indicating thickness. The actual section line will be midpoint between the first two points and the third indicating the section thickness. The width of the block defines the width of the section. `KEY-IN:` `POINTCLOUDADV SECTION CREATEQUICK ORIBLOCK` `KEY-IN:` `REALITYMODEL SECTION CREATEQUICK ORIBLOCK`
Cutting Planes by Axis	Similar to Oriented Block by Axis except there is no boundary based on width. The section will go through the entire reality model. The target view is fit on the two points used to define the section plane. `KEY-IN:` `POINTCLOUDADV SECTION CREATEQUICK CUTPLANEBYAXIS` `KEY-IN:` `REALITYMODEL SECTION CREATEQUICK CUTPLANEBYAXIS`
Cutting Planes	Similar to Oriented Block except there is no boundary based on width. The section will go through the entire reality model. The target view is fit on the two points used to define the section plane. `KEY-IN:` `POINTCLOUDADV SECTION CREATEQUICK CUTPLANE` `KEY-IN:` `REALITYMODEL SECTION CREATEQUICK CUTPLANE`
Section Direction	The direction of the cutting plane. Since only two points are used to define the section plane, the third direction is taken from the Section Direction setting. From View Direction - taken in the direction of the view Horizontal (Global) - taken in the XY plane Vertical (Global) - taken in the Z direction Horizontal (ACS) - taken in the XY plane according to the active ACS Vertical (ACS)- taken in the Z direction according to the active ACS
Section Name	Enter a name for the new section.
Section Level	Select the Level where the Section element will be placed. Cut: Only the Cut setting is turned ON. Forward: Only the Forward setting is turned ON. Backward: Only the Backward setting is turned ON. Forward and Backward: Only the Forward, Cut and Backward settings are turned ON.
Mode	Choose from Temporary or Permanent.
Target	The view that will show the results of the section operation.
Clip Volume Settings	Control the Clip Volume Settings of Cross Section and Slave views. Cut: Only the Cut setting is turned ON. Forward and Backward: Only the Forward and Backward settings are turned ON.
Thickness	The thickness of the section that defines the clip volume.
Step Definition	Choose between Manual and Automatic step definition.
Forward/Backward Step	The distance the section will move perpendicular to the section plane when using the forward or backward tools.
Left/Right Step	The distance the section will move in the plane of the section when using the left or right tools.
Rotation Step	The number of degrees the section will be rotated when using the rotate section tools.
Measure Tool	Can be used to measure the distance directly from the model.
