- When doing cross sections it is smart to have the bottom layer displayed.
- Place a cursor position on the bottom layer using key letter y when in 3D mode, or just click when in 2D mode.
- Cross section between two cursor points: Set two cursor marks. Geocap remember them even if only the latest is shown.
