To Specify the Cut Plane Display of a Slab or Roof Slab

Use this procedure to specify the properties of one or more cut planes for an individual slab or roof slab. Cut plane display properties apply only to display representations, such as Plan, that are used in the Top view (plan view) of a drawing.

1. Double-click the slab or roof slab you want to change.
2. On the Properties palette, click the Display tab.
3. Under the General category, for Display component, verify that *NONE* is selected.
4. For Display controlled by, select This object.
   Note: To apply your changes to all slabs or roof slabs in the drawing, select Drawing default setting. To apply changes to all slabs or roof slabs of this style, select Slab or Roof Slab Style:<style name>.
5. If necessary, expand Object Display Properties Cut Plane.
6. For Override cut plane, specify whether you want to override the global cut plane defined for the current display configuration.
7. If you selected Yes for Override cut plane, enter a value for Height to define the cut plane for this object. Alternatively, you can click , and specify 2 points in the drawing area to define the new height.

You can also access and modify these same cut plane settings through the slab’s or roof slab’s context menu, as follows:

1. Select the slab or roof slab you want to change, right-click, and click Edit Object Display.
2. In the Object Display dialog box, click the Display Properties tab.

   The current display representation is displayed in bold.

3. Select the display representation where you want the changes to appear, and select Object Override. If Object Override is already selected, click at the upper-right corner of the tab.
4. In the Display Properties dialog box, click the Cut Plane tab, and then change the settings as needed.
5. Click OK twice.
