Sectioning Tab


The Sectioning tab lets you cull the model to focus on a certain spatial area. All other display controls, such as color, hidden elements, are respected in a section. Only one section can be turned on at a time. Sections are stored locally.

You can create three different types of sections; horizontal, vertical, and box.

You can use a horizontal section to display an i-model by floors, with a horizontal section created for each floor. You can move a horizontal section up/down and side to side. You can rotate a horizontal section to accommodate angled walls.

A vertical section can display a cross-section or elevation view.

Box sections can show rooms in an i-model or small areas of buildings/plants. All other information outside of the box is hidden.
