A feature that I always use in my clients projects to quickly cut out some parts of an object, add windows etc or other pieces of models is the corona slicer material.
Thanks to the exclude/include option implemented in the shader and just by assigning the material to the object we get a simple slicer that works perfectly.
Used for example to quickly cut out a region in a railclone roof to add in a roof window.
Maybe the workaround would be to make the corona slicer material compatible with D5 render.
Oh yes, that is awesome news. The section tool seems to replicate exactly what I would need and a lot of users out there. This will be a real game changer for our professional work.
Really great news and development. Was a crucial feature for me to go fully D5
