Software Customisation Reference Manual

Method	Result	Purpose
sectionPlane (DBREF)	constructor	Creates the Section Plane Object with the given DBREF, which must represent a SPLA, PPLA or FPLA element

Name	Result	Purpose
Redraw ()	No Result	Redraw the plane in the 3D View. A plane is infinite in two directions, but is drawn with it's infinite edges clipped to the edges of the current drawlist. Therefore, if the plane is moved, or if the drawlist changes, the plane may need to be redrawn.
Highlight ()	No Result	Temporarily highlight the Section Plane in the 3D View.
Show (BOOLEAN)	No Result	Show/hide a plane in the 3D View.
setClipping (BOOLEAN, DBREF)	No Result	Set/unset the clipping status of the section plane within the VIEW. DBREF is the reference of the VIEW element
switchClipside (DBREF)	No Result	Switch between standard and reverse for which side of the section plane the model will be clipped. . DBREF is the reference of the VIEW element
showClipItems (BOOLEAN, DBREF)	No Result	Highlight the items in the 3d view that are in the clip list for this section plane. DBREF is the reference of the VIEW element
redefinePoints (DIRECTION)	No Result	Clear the points defining the section plane, and start a user interaction to redefine them. DIRECTION specifies the direction in which the lines between the points are to be extruded.
Colour (REAL)	No Result	Set the colour of the Section Plane (Real must be a colour.code())
Translucency (REAL)	No Result	Set the translucency of the Section Plane. 99 = transparent, 1 = opaque

Name	Result	Purpose
isValid ()	BOOLEAN	Checks if the section plane object is valid.
queryDbref ()	DBREF	Returns the actual database element.
queryShow ()	BOOLEAN	Get the show of the Section Plane
queryClip ()	BOOLEAN	Get the clipped value of the Section Plane
queryType ()	STRING	Get the types of the Section Plane. (SPLA, FPLA, PPLA)
queryColour ()	INTEGER	Get the colour of the Section Plane
queryTranslucency ()	INTEGER	Get the translucency of the Section Plane.
