Add a clip view at object mid section (with a push/pull option)
When editing it would be useful if you could set the view to clip the object at the midpoint distance automatically with a shortcut/click. This would allow the modeler to easily see how two materials interact.
Currently you can set view clipping and move your viewpoint, but that makes it really difficult to find the right spot. If you could have it snap to the mid point it would be great. Then also add a tool to push/pull the clipping to allow the perfect viewpoint to be found.
The example I need this for is creating surface tension in a liquid. It would be easiest to see the center of the volume of liquid and where it intersects with the vessel at 90 degrees. Then I could easily perfect it.
