ABSTRACT:
A hierarchical data storage scheme associatively links a master solid object model in a graphics data processing system to a solid model of a sectioning object. The associative linking provides the capability of automatically generating sectioned views when the master object is modified. These views are generated at the operator's request without the necessity of having to apply sectioning objects to each one of the subsequent views. An interactive facility is provided for creating such structures.
