Section box parameters top and bottom

Section box parameters top and bottom

Section boxes have a top and bottom.  It'd be great to have that tied to a level so that 3D views can be setup with precision.  And exporting Level slices to Navisworks is a lot easier.

It would be very useful if these were in the properties window! Especially since its so hard o locate the arrows, and at certain angles top and bottom ones are grabbed by mistake.

The same can be said about reference boxes.

@Anonymous That's a tolerable work around for level slices, and for views you set up once for a sheet, but for general use it's annoying.  I'd like to be able to select the section box and, without changing my view, adjust what I'm seeing.  For example, I might start with a view that's showing the first floor, and want to see the entire building.  Ideally I could select the selection box and change the range to 40'.  Instead I have to twist the view to find the arrow, then eyeball how much to drag it (usually taking 2-4 times) to see what I want, then twist the view back to approximately where I had it.
