How can I find volume of my model increments?

I am trying to find the volume when sectioning increments of fish head models. Therefore, is there a function that displays the volume of the visible model increments opposed to only showing the total volume of the complete model? I will really appreciate it. 

 

Thanks,

Marcos

Could you please share your model?  If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.

I went ahead and made a rough model.  Late in the design timeline, make as many cutting planes, lines, etc. as you desire along the length of the lure.  Using Split Body you can make your body segments to pull your volume from.  After this use the Combine to put them back together.  If you go back in your timeline and change something, simply drag your end of timeline marker back before the Combine the get your different volumes.
