Seems we can't give a color to the section(s) surface(s) during the process!
(or before in giving different colors to the surfaces' volumes like X= Red, Y = Green, Z = Blue)
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Pilou, in "Section plane" mode, the generated plane will get the "active style" applied to it.
Go to the scene browser styles section and right click on a style's color swatch to set it as active.

Yep cool trick for give a color!
But it's only one color for all the surfaces and not each separately!
Sure I can at the exit of the function but...

Hi PIlou,
re:

You can do it separately if you run the Section command 3 separate times and only generate one section each time.
You can also set up a keyboard shortcut that will enable just one specific plane at a time, like this:
Section UseXY=true UseXZ=false UseYZ=false

@Pilou, it's also possible to automatically set a specific style to be the active style in a shortcut key as well, like this:
Section oncommandstart="var style=moi.geometryDatabase.findStyle( 'Rouge' ); moi.geometryDatabase.activeStyle=style.index;" UseXY=true UseXZ=false UseYZ=false
If you set that on a shortcut key when you press it, it should set the XY checkbox to be on, XZ and YZ checkboxes off and make a style named 'Rouge' to be the active style.

Yep so if i good understand I must have 3 different shortcuts! :)
Something like
Section oncommandstart="var style=moi.geometryDatabase.findStyle( 'Rouge' ); moi.geometryDatabase.activeStyle=style.index;" UseXY=true UseXZ=false UseYZ=false
Section oncommandstart="var style=moi.geometryDatabase.findStyle( 'Vert' ); moi.geometryDatabase.activeStyle=style.index;" UseXZ=true UseYX=false UseYZ=false
Section oncommandstart="var style=moi.geometryDatabase.findStyle( 'Bleu' ); moi.geometryDatabase.activeStyle=style.index;" UseYZ=true UseXY=false UseXZ=false
Yep but that is just successively ! :(
If i add a true there is 2 same colors!

Hi Pilou,

Yes that's correct.
> If i add a true there is 2 same colors!
Sorry I don't understand this part.

on my video above on the last image there 2 red planes because I add a "true" condition!
I can't have the 3 different colors in the same time !
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Pilou,
re:
> I can't have the 3 different colors in the same time !
Yes that's correct, this command is not designed to make 3 different colors at the same time.
Is that something that you need to do frequently?

No aespecially but seems to me that will be just natural that "pushing" a section will show that you are in a primary axis (red , green , blue)

To me that seems like it would be distracting. seeing a big red surface would seem to me like a "danger something's wrong" signal.
