This function helps you to define 2D-cuts in components of the model. When detailing, these cuts can be displayed and dimensioned automatically as separate details. You may exactly define where cuts are required unless they had been inserted automatically during modeling.

This function doesn't create the cut itself. You only define where, which direction and how deep a cut has to be displayed later. In contrast to the manual cuts which are inserted in a finished detail by means of the (Automatic 2D Cut) tool, here you have the advantage of automatic positioning and dimensioning of the cuts. They will be up-dated together with a drawing-update.
