Use RegionFunction

Manipulate[ParametricPlot3D[
  {Cos[u], Sin[u] + Cos[v], Sin[v]},
  {u, 0, umax}, {v, -Pi, vmax},
  RegionFunction -> Function[{x, y, z},
    x < xmax && y > ymin && z < zmax],
  PlotRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-2, 2}, {-1, 1}}],
 {{umax, 2 Pi}, 0.01, 2 Pi, 0.01,
  Appearance -> "Labeled"},
 {{vmax, 2 Pi}, -Pi + 0.01, Pi, 0.01,
  Appearance -> "Labeled"},
 {{xmax, 1}, -1, 1, 0.02,
  Appearance -> "Labeled"},
 {{ymin, -2}, -2, 2, 0.04,
  Appearance -> "Labeled"},
 {{zmax, 1}, -1, 1, 0.02,
  Appearance -> "Labeled"},
 ControlType -> {Slider, VerticalSlider,
   Slider, Slider, VerticalSlider},
 ControlPlacement ->
  {Top, Right, Top, Bottom, Right}]

Hi,

i have to analyze a huge amount of data. In this page:

http://www.wolfram.com/products/mathematica/newin6/content/DynamicInteractivity/UseAllStandardFormsOfControls.html

i found an example that would be very useful to my work. Does anyone
have any idea on how to create this ? Specifically what i need is the
plane that cuts the graphic and shows the values at a specific
position, i.e. a plane parallel to the XY that i can place at any
position of the Z axis. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks,

Victor
