I know about the section view.. but this doesn't actually affect
the
assembly? It only gives you the view.. it doesn't actually affect
the
assembly. [correct me if I'm wrong]
So what I'm looking for is - a
similar effect to what you get if you make a
gap or hole through an
assembly.. but, defined by a workplane in which you
simply throw out one
side. I've been contemplating if there might be a
workaround to get this
effect but so far it's not satisfactory at all. Does
anyone have any ideas
on this??

I wasn't asking, I was suggesting.
In your assembly, create an extruded cut
feature.

Oh.. I missed your point.. well, using the cut
feature was the 'work around' I was trying to use. It just seemed quite a
hassle to first create an extruded cut feature. The trouble about doing it
this way is that I need to know the dimensions of the part that is cut
beforehand.. but that's a bit tricky.
I am assembling parts and need to cut off
anything beyond the workplane, but depending on the exact configuration.. the
size over the part being cut varies. I guess I could try to simply make the
cut feature 'oversized' but I didn't think it was very elegant.. and figured
it should be quite easy to simply use the workplane for CUT instead of having
to define geometry first.
but thanx for your suggestion Rui

If your dimensions vary in one direction, you
can always skecth an enormous rectangle on the plane you want and the use the
ALL option for the depth.
That will leave you safe no matter how your
assembly changes.
