Different torus cutouts.

### From

Parameter ID: `PRIM_SLICEFROM` · Range: [-∞..+∞°]

Enter a start angle.

### To

Parameter ID: `PRIM_SLICETO` · Range: [-∞..+∞°]

Enter an end angle.

### Regular Grid

Parameter ID: `PRIM_REGULAR`

The Regular Grid option is only available when **Slice** is enabled. By enabling this option and entering a value into the **Width** box you can control the subdivisions within the plane of section of the sliced object. Small values produce a fine subdivision while larger values result in a coarse structure. This subdividing only affects the face (the plane of section) of the slice.

Use this option only if you intend to process the object further after slicing it.

### Width

Parameter ID: `PRIM_REGULARWIDTH` · Range: [0..+∞m]

Use the **width** setting to define the degree of subdivision. This can be used, for example, when an object or only the cut surfaces will be subsequently edited (e.g., bent).
