+++3.2 How to create sections in the visualization using Rhino Clipping Plane?| \\
+\\
+  * Use Rhino’s `ClippingPlane` command to insert a plane that intersects the geometry you want to section.\\
+  * On the Grasshopper canvas, insert a `GUID` parameter block.\\
+  * Right-click the `GUID` block and choose “Set one GUID.” Then select the Clipping Plane object in Rhino.\\
+  * Once the GUID is linked to the Clipping Plane, the visualization should automatically update.\\
+  * The simulation geometry will be sectioned and filled accordingly, allowing clearer inspection of internal features.\\
+  * **Note:** Moving the Clipping Plane in Rhino will *not* update the sectioned geometry in Grasshopper. This is because the `GUID` block only captures the object’s identity—not its dynamic position or orientation.\\
