List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Objects to slice Specifies the 3D solid or surface object that you want to slice.
If you select a mesh object, you can choose to convert it to a 3D solid or surface
before completing the slice operation.

■ YZ
■ ZX
■ 3points
Start point of slicing plane Sets the first of two points that define the angle
of the slicing plane. The slicing plane is perpendicular to the XY plane of the
current UCS.
■ Second point on plane. Sets the second of two points on the slicing plane.
■
Point on desired side
■ Keep both sides
Planar object Aligns the cutting plane with a plane that contains a selected
circle, ellipse, circular or elliptical arc, 2D spline, or 2D polyline segment.
