Planar Ops Sample
PlanarOps is a simple application, which demonstrates
Planar Boolean Operations
and programming of Clipping Planes.
The application cuts or clips the main object (knot by default) with a plane. It
uses the first Clipping Plane.of the first
object in the model to display a plane in 3D.
Use "Show" check box to show / hide the plane. Use Enable check box to enable
clipping plane, which works as a preview of the cut / clip operation. When
enabled clipping palnes change only visual 3D display, not underlying geometry
of the model.
To make change to the geometry press "Cut Permanently" button. Depending on "Keep
Solid On Cut" check box the resulting object will appear as a solid or a clipped
shell.
Use File menu either to save the result or (re)load a model. By default the
application uses Models\Samples\PlanarOps.mdg model from the installation
directory
The "Clipping plane" controls allow changing location and orientating of the
plane. Change sign of all corrdinates in the Normal group to cut off the other
half of the object. See also Clip example.
