      Right now, when i export the section lines, it only exports the lines of the model that come into contact with the section plane. I've been looking for a way to export the visible elevation lines (everything BEHIND the section plane) when you section a model into Autocad, Is there a way to do this within sketchup or with a plugin?

      Much appreciated

        You need to make a copy of the model and then cut it in half at the section plane.
        My "SectionCutFace" tool can add the face onto the section, BUT you also need "Zorro2" to do the actual physical 'cut' through the geometry so you can erase 'half' before exporting it: search the plugins-index for it...

          Something like these (as TIG says).

          Perspective:

          Parallel (still retaining that small, southern wall):

          Parallel (full cut)
