It would be nice to be able to snap to other views from top plan for the purpose of "tracing" objects drawn in 3d. The cut 2d and 3d section tool is nice, but they both leave you with lines instead of polys - and a lot of lines at that.

If cut 2-D section gives you the line you need, you can just cut 2-D section to a new layer, then create another layer. Have both layers visible, and work on the most recent layer, and you'll get the equivalent of the snaps you wanted. When you're done tracing, delete the section layer. Or is this somehow not what you need?

You can also created projected polygons with the "Copy Convert to Polygons" command.
