i've seen a post that you can not rotate the section box along the x/y axe, the post was from 2019 and i was wondering if it still not possible to do it

so basicly , i want to have the view to cut my builduing diagonaly

but i can only totate it on the Z axe.

The post from 2019

I like to see this post you are talking about. As far as I know, 3D Sections and Scope Boxes view must have parallel vertical axes.

i linked it in my first message, you were the one who repended to it

you've said it was impossible , but since it was 3 year ago, i thought maybe there was an update or a way to do it now

You can rotate both the section box and the model.

If you want to only rotate the section box to clip the model at an angle then No, you can't without some workaround.

I just had a speed-reading accident. I thought you said you've "seen a post that you can rotate the section box". I missed the "not". 😉

Yes, you can rotate it in a plan view.
