cuts an object below a arbitrary plane using SGcut relative to the center of floor of bb
Description
Beside Franz Irlinger who introduce me into the beauty of mechanism instead of robots, I'd like to thank Marcus Rompf and Henning Schober, both involved into the design of accordion mechanics.

Syntax
[SGU,SGO,Ts,Ufi,Ofi]=SGcutT([SG,Ts,centxy,expl,ct])
Input Parameter
SG: | | Solid Geoemtry or empty for SGofgca |
Ts: | | cutting plane to cut under; or empty for interactive select |
centxy: | | if true, center the SG on xy-plane; default=false | new in 4.1 |
expl: | | explosion distance of the solids; |
ct: | | 'a'xial, 'c'oronal, 's'agital, default is '-a' |
Output Parameter
SGU: | | New lower geometry (Magenta) |
SGO: | | New upper geometry (Grey) |
Ts: | | T Surface - HT Matrix of the cut if T was selected interactively |
Ufi: | | Facet index for the crossing facet of the lower part |
Ofi: | | Facet index for the crossing facet of the upper part |
