Title: RE: [JAVA3D] Model clipping
Dave,
It would indeed be tricky to use clipping planes to create holes, and it may not actually be possible. As you already noticed, you end up clipping everything if you use standard clipping planes to try to create a hole. Java 3D uses clipping plane

Subject: [JAVA3D] Model clipping
Is it possible to define a model clip such that it makes a hole in geometry?
In other words can the clipping planes be defined such that the planes face
outward? In particular I want to put holes

basements, etc.
And when it does clip, does it slice triangles or j
