Slice-delete
-
Hi .rb gurus!
I really missing some simple (I hope!)routine
that slices preselected geometry and then deletes unwanted portion
1.mark cutting plane with 3 clicks (it should support SU Inference Cues)
2.point portion to be deleted (1 click or(?) crossing window)-that's it!
Unfortunately me stupido to write this ruby by myself
May be someone could help me (and I beleive other users)?
Thanks in advance! -

You mean a slice-like Acad command ? (to split a solid or set of solids in 2 parts ?)
-
in that example, it'd be cool if i could select where i want to slice (shown by the vertical flat plane) and then select which half i'd like to delete...
being left with this...

Hi Didier!
Exactly- slice command (with 3 points option)
You know for some reason (we all know why
) I don't make 3d in acad for years.
So this morning I had to check how slice work in "black screen".
P.S. I just thought... After procedure of slicing itself user could press escape
for leaving both parts and alternatively 1 pick for deleting.
Best wishes! -
I added this:

to the SU Wish List a while ago.
...
The ability to perform Boolean Operations (eg Union, Intersect, Subtract [ie slice])would give SU this ability.
It would make SU extremely powerful.

Just to tag onto this thread in case some genius comes up w/ a Ruby (great faith in Google here also..;-) and add my interest.The seven step work around (select/section/create group from slice/explode/delete plane/delete edges and surfaces on one side of the plane/heal the open end) is OK when we trim a rafter or three, but we need to animate a wind blown "explosion" and it would be great to find a Ruby that could slice and dice a group/component and leave the pieces or sections of the orig object grouped and intact.
((If I understood how you all programmed these scripts, I'd probably know this is not easy, so my apologies in advance.))/Dennis
