Section Box to show different levels/view range in ONLY ONE 3d view (like the PLAN REGION tool for p

[Wish List System]

Summary: Sometimes, our projects have mezzanines in different areas in a storey. When showing the 3d to the client,
If we pull down the section box to only show the one under mezzanine, then the upper services at the areas without mezzanine will be cut too. it would be really good to be able to assign view ranges in different areas in 3d.

Description: Sometimes, our projects have mezzanines in different areas in a storey.
For instance, at Level 1, the right-hand side will have a loft, so the there will be 2 layout drawings for this level: Level 1 & Level 1M
Level 1M will be from the mezzanine level to the underside of the level 2 slab while
Level 1 will be, at the right hand-side, from Level 1FFL to underside of Level 1 Mezzanine slab; and, at the left-hand side, will be from Level 1 FFL to underside of Level 2 slab.
That's easy to do in layout because of the "Plan Region" feature

But in 3d, when we want to show the client what services are at level 1.

If we pull down the section box to only show the one under mezzanine, then the left-hand-side upper services will be cut too. So it would be really good to be able to assign view ranges in different areas in 3d. Not sure how to achieve this...maybe add more section boxes, or create a 3d region tool...

So it would be really good to be able to assign view ranges in different areas of the 3d view. One way to achieve this is to add more section boxes just like in Google Sketchup or Navis...another method would be to create a 3d region tool where you can assign the view range using the properties bar/palette.
