Hello,

My name is Eko, I would like to discuss how to slice the 3D model using python and get the sliced plane. The illustration of slicing process is shown in the attached figure

King regards  
Eko

Can you be more specific about what you want to do? What are the input and output formats you hope to use? (i.e. image volumes, surface models?)
