How to create cross section in the conceptual model

[Al-Qadami]

Dear PetraSim users, 

 

I am new user of PetraSim software, I just started and I hope that my question is not silly. 

 

After I create the conceptual model I need to create several cross sections at different directions. Is this tool available in PetraSim GUI? 

Thank you

Your question is not silly!  Unfortunately, PetraSim is not really designed to create cross-sections.  If you are working with a rectangular mesh, you can show rows and columns of cells, with all other cells turned off.  If you color the cells based on the layer or material type, it will create a cross-sectional view of the model.

 

To do this, select the mesh row or column and right click to choose to Show Only Selected Objects.

 

Please let us know if you have additional questions!
