To all,
I have been playing around with the sectioning capabilities in .NET, but have hit a snag.
When working manually in AutoCAD , you can create a section plane (SECTIONPLANE command) and then by right-clicking on the section plane you can create a 2D section of the solids that are cut by the section plane. In the settings, you can then turn on background geometry and turn off hidden lines, this will create a 2D section that shows background geometry but hides lines that are hidden behind other solids.
The .NET API provides access to these same capabilities. However, I cannot achieve what is described above. It appears as though the GenerateSectionGeometry method can only be applied to a single solid, one-at-a-time. Therefore, when this method is used with the visiblity of background geometry set to true and the visibilty of hiddenlines set to false, it does hide lines on the backside of a solid but lines on a solid that should be hidden behind another solid are still visible. The desired behavior is that these lines-hidden-behind-solids should not be visible. Is this functionality achievable with the .NET API? I hope so.
I have attached my source code below. Please let me know if you see what I am doing wrong.
