Loop Section

Create loop cut along a given edge across the mesh.

Hotkeys

Detect State

Key	Action
Mouse Move	Detect edge under cursor
LMB	Select edge and enter move state

Move State

Key	Action
Mouse Move	Adjust position along axis
LMB	Confirm operation
RMB/ESC	Cancel operation
X	Toggle X-axis constraint (Global/Local)
Y	Toggle Y-axis constraint (Global/Local)
Z	Toggle Z-axis constraint (Global/Local)
E	Switch to edge axis constraint

Properties

Move

• Description: Offset from selected edge center
• Range: -∞ to ∞
• Default: 0.0

Plane Normal

• Description: Move vector (X, Y, Z)
• Range: -1.0 to 1.0 per axis
• Default: (0, 0, 0)

How It Works

Loop Section creates a cut through the mesh using the selected edge as reference:

1. Detects the edge under the cursor in detect state
2. Calculates a section plane perpendicular to the edge
3. Allows interactive positioning along the constrained axis
4. Cuts all intersecting faces to create a new edge loop
