I want to look at an interior cross section of a media object.  Using a
clipping plane (i.e. clipped_by) causes all the media to vanish - not the
desired effect.

Anybody know how to generate/ view an interior cross section of media?

Thanks.

Jim

You'll have to CSG intersect your media container with the clipping plane.
Clipped_by won't work because media likes to be inside finite, bounded 
spaces.
