CuttingService

class wvc.CuttingService()

Service class for managing cutting plane operations in 3D models.

This service provides a high-level interface for creating, managing, and manipulating cutting planes and cutting sections. It acts as a bridge between the UI components and the underlying HOOPS Web Viewer cutting functionality.

Key features:

  • Cutting section management (create, activate, deactivate, clear)
  • Cutting plane operations (add, remove, update, visibility control)
  • Visual property management (color, opacity, reference geometry)
  • Capping geometry configuration
  • Event dispatching for UI synchronization
  • Face selection integration for plane creation

Constructors

wvc.CuttingService.constructor()
CuttingService(cuttingManager: ICuttingManager): CuttingService

Constructs a new CuttingService instance.

Parameters

cuttingManager: ICuttingManager

Optional HOOPS Web Viewer cutting manager to use for operations

Returns: CuttingService

Properties

wvc.CuttingService.DefaultConfig
