It's possible to convert a cut plane of a 3D mesh into a 2D problem.

Push on the button ``2D Cut Plane'', a small window appears, (see figure 1.37).

Choose a name for the 2D problem, (the default one is ``cut-plane''), then ``create'' it.
A new 2D problem is created, its name appears in the main window.
Push on the ``2D'' button in the main window (see figure 1.1) and select a mode to visualize the 2D solution as explained in chapter 1.3.
