    Getting crashes in 2017 Mac with the latest update. Might copy back in my older version and see if I get the same behavior. It didn't crash yesterday at all.

      Working just fine, same model in 2016.
      Will see if I have the latest SU2017 installed.

        Nothing to report, sporadic crashes in 2017 Mac with certain models, solid in 2015 and 2016 with same model.

          Hi TIG,

          Great plugin, but I have a question. I'm trying to couple sectioncutface with the keyframe animation plugin, essentially to animate a section cut in perspective through a building model, except by animating the building to move through the section plane, keeping the plane and camera in the same spot. Is it possible to have sectioncutface update real-time as the animation is played?

            TIG -

            When I create a scene with the SCF plugin the layer I have added the section to is now on in the current scene as well as the new scene... is this a bug or a feature? I would expect that the current scene would not be affected by anything happening when I choose 'New Scene'

            I'm also getting bug splats every couple of times I run the plugin. I have sent off the bug slats, not sure where I can access them to show you what is going on.

            Last bugs plat submitted was Crash Report #7925

                    OK - I think I have isolated the issue, am testing now.

                    If I run the plugin to create a new scene from a scene that uses a style where 'Section Planes' has not been updated or refreshed - SU crashes.

                    Done this twice now in a row. Will test more.

                    If I run the plugin in a scene with a style that I have not altered (like turned the section planes on so I can see them, to create the new cut) - then it works consistently.

                      A guaranteed way to Splat is to Remake Section when you section is hiding all content.

                        OK - This appears to be the case - if any change is made to the style of the current scene (like turn section planes on or off) - if you don't refresh the style when SectionCutFace tries to make a new scene it crashes.

                        I have tested this by altering edges, not refreshing and getting a crash, as well as only toggling the Section Plane on and off (for visibility) - and it crashes if I do not update the style before running the plugin.

                              I can... later today.

                              2 issues that I have posted about -

                                • Is the layer behavior a bug or feature?

                              Video:
                              https://youtu.be/v9GZJrM7Jvo

                              I am getting the layer turned on in the scene I start from, when I believe it should only be on in the new scene that SCF creates.

                              1. the crashes - it crashes just with 2 boxes on the screen, and I believe this is connected to having a new scene created that is using a style that has been altered, but not refreshed.

                                  TIG.

                                  I upgraded SectionCutFace using extension store, the previous version was working fine and with this upgrade to 6.1 when I want to create a section I don't get the prameters window.

                                  Any clues why this doe not appear.

                                  Thanks

                                    COMPO seems to be mistranslated in the strings file...

                                        I just installed SectionCutFace. I get the context menu "Add SectionCut Face" but right-clicking it does nothing, other than closing the context menu. There is no dialog box to specify the paramenters, and no section cut face is generated.

                                        After right-clicking, the following is added to the Ruby console:

                                        Error: #<NameError: uninitialized constant TIG::SectionCutFace::COMPO>

                                          You're not supposed to right click on Add SectionCut Face. You're supposed to left click on it.
