Cross-section
One clipping plane, editorial by intent: read the build-up without touching the geometry.
Feature
Cut it open.Read the plan.
A design is only as good as it is legible. Builder ships the technical views that make it legible: an editorial cross-section through a clipping plane, interior placement ghosting, layer toggles, the grid — and render-quality tiers for when the reading needs beauty.
The easy explanation
The building already knows what it is.
The cross-section is a clipping plane you slide through the building — an editorial view, not a copy. Nothing is rebuilt, nothing exported: the section is the design, still live, seen open. Interior ghosting, layer toggles and the grid read the rest.
"Slide the plane past the whole house south wing — rooms, lintels and the stair stay live on the page."
the section is a view — edit through it, undo it whole
Interior ghosting
Placement previews ghost inside rooms — legality is checked geometrically, so nothing lands inside a wall.
Layer toggles
Roof off. Walls on. Storeys separated. The document never changes — only the view.
Grid & tiers
The grid sets out the plan; four render tiers — low to ultra (2× supersampled) — trade polish for pace while you read.
Views that answer questions
Read it, then change it.
Every technical view is the same live document seen differently — nothing is a frozen copy. Undo spans all of it: Ctrl+Z on any change, scoped and repeatable.
Cross-section for buildability
An editorial view made for reading the building — openings, storeys and slab edges, in the cut.
Ghosting for fit
See the piece in the room before it commits; placement legality is checked geometrically.
Layers for structure
Read walls without the roof; read the plan without the furniture.
Daylight that behaves
Every daylit opening carries a RectAreaLight into the room — the section shows rooms that light correctly, not glow.
Feature · Technical views
A section you can edit through.
The clipping plane is a view, the ghost is a preview, the layers are toggles — the design underneath never moves, and the undo covers everything.

- Editorial cross-section — one clipping plane, geometry untouched
- Interior placement ghosting — previews checked against real walls, ceilings and floors
- Layer toggles — roof, storeys, furniture: read what you need
- Grid for setting out — the plan stays honest to the plot
- Four render-quality tiers: low / medium / high / ultra (2× supersampled)
- Interior daylight solved per opening — rooms light correctly instead of glowing uniformly
- Undo over all of it —
