6.4 Raise or Lower an active Cutplane
A Cutplane can be raised or lowered by user-defined increments using the Raise Active Cutplane
and Lower Active Cutplane commands. The increment by which the active Cutplane is raised and
lowered using these commands is set in the Cutplane Offset dialog. This offset is used each time
you raise or lower the Cutplane.

hotkeys (see Customize Hotkeys) to the Raise Active Cutplane and Lower Active
Cutplane commands or use the Add/Edit Cutplanes dialog box.
