Description
|
|
|
•
|
The CrossSectionTutor command launches a tutor interface that computes, plots, and animates the resultant cross section between plane(s) and a curve.
|
|
|
If f(x,y), g(x,y,z)=K, x=a..b, y=c..d, and z=e..f are not specified, CrossSectionTutor uses defaults.
|
|
•
|
When the CrossSectionTutor is running, interaction with the worksheet is not possible.
