Modeling tool

Split

Divide one solid body with a world plane, construction plane, or supported planar reference.

Purpose

Divide one solid body with a world plane, construction plane, or supported planar reference.

Where to find it

Select a body in Model and choose Modify > Split.

Selection

  • Choose the Target body and a Plane that intersects it.

Steps

  1. Select Target and Plane.
  2. Choose whether to Keep Both Sides, review the preview, and tap Apply.

Options

Target

Chooses the solid body to divide.

Plane

Chooses the cutting world, construction, or supported planar reference.

Keep Both Sides

Keeps both resulting solids; when off, only the designated retained side remains.

Result

Apply adds a Split feature and produces one or two resulting bodies according to Keep Both Sides.

Editing

Open Split in History to change the cutting plane or retained-side behavior.

Troubleshooting

The split produces no result.

Choose a plane that crosses the target's solid volume rather than merely touching or missing it.
