Clipping a 3D model using anatomical planes in Slicer 5.8

In previous versions of 3D Slicer, the Models module allowed clipping a model using the anatomical slice planes (axial, coronal, and sagittal).

In version 5.8, I can’t find the same “Clip model by slice planes” option. What is the new workflow to achieve this behavior?

Specifically, I’d like to clip a surface model using the Red/Yellow/Green slice planes in the 3D view, just as before.

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

You can still do clipping, please see this screenshot (I used the latest 5.9)

@Sunderlandkyl @lassoan Shouldn’t we remove these controls? They don’t seem to do anything (UPDATE: They don’t until you configure it below, then the checkbox seems to be a duplicate of the one in the Clipping section. Even the “Configure…” button did not seem to do anything, I guess it opened the section below but it was not visible. It is at least confusing…)
