Slice (through the view)

A "slice" may be thought of as the plane that you are working in while in Model Mode.

If you are in Plan View, the cursor remains at the same Z-coordinate for all locations, and you are in a horizontal "slice." For Snapping To an entity, the cursor and the entity must be at the same Z-coordinate.

If you are in an Elevation View, the "slice" is a vertical plane. For Snapping To an entity, the cursor and the entity must be in the same vertical plane as the entity.

For Snapping To an entity while in an Isometric View, the cursor and the entity must be at the same Z-coordinate.
