Hi everyone,I wonder if there's a tool similar to "Plan Region" but in 3D View mode? I want to render a 3D view oriented to a Floor Plan, but by using the Section Box I end up cutting elements that I don't want to be cut. Specifically, I need to show simultaneously the door openings and the top of a cabinet, but the cabinet is taller that the door openings. So either I show the doors and the sliced cabinet, which I'm trying to avoid, or the top of the cabinet and no door opening, which I can't. Any suggestions? Many thanks in advance!

In a 3D View use section box and then hide components that get in the way. There's no plan region comparative tool for 3D views.

You can also try placing a camera, adjusting your view to get the right angle and field of view and then go to a 3d non camera view, selecting the section box, returning to your camera view window and adjust the box corners to get the right cut plane and then hide components that get in the way. If its too difficult to adjust the section box planes in that camera view, with the section box selected jump to a plan view and adjust it there.
