Another request regarding Section Lines which will probably attract as much interest as this one! I would like to be able to select whether the extents beyond the cut plane for a Section Viewport are Infinite or Finite Depth from the Section-Elevation Line for that viewport. When I want a section VP to display geometry beyond the cut plane I often don't consider whether the depth of the extents should be infinite or finite until after I've created it. Most of the time whichever setting it was created with is fine + doesn't need changing. However if I do want to change (for example) the depth from infinite to finite after the fact I would like to be able to do it from the section line for that VP, instead of from the 'Advanced Section Properties' dialog for the VP. Setting a finite depth is often best done interactively with the section line (using the dashed extents box) + indeed selecting a section line to see whether it has this box or not is a quick + easy way to tell whether that VP's depth is set to finite or infinite. However, what's missing is the ability, within the OIP for a section line, to toggle between 'finite' + 'infinite'. It is currently too many clicks to navigate to the VP from the section line, open the Advanced Properties, go to the Extents tab, change the setting, exit Advanced Properties, go back to the section line...
