Proper Clipping in Plant 3D

Proper Clipping in Plant 3D

I've noticed that proper clipping functions have been requested for years now. Please take a serious look at adding this functionality. One of the first thing I'm always asked about Plant 3D, is "where's the clipping function, the sectioning tool doesn't work as expected?". Plant 3D has come a long way, but until a proper clipping function is added, I will always shy away from its use. This should be a top priority for Autodesk.

Best I've found is polyline based xclip on xrefs.  This also works if you embed other items in the xref'd file and then xref it in and xclip it like navisworks coordination models.

 

Nothing for clipping the live drawing like in most other piping software.

I totally agree. Until now I have tried many other 3D programs and everyone have a function to clip in 3D. This is a very minus in Autocad Plant 3D. Should be high priority
