Macro Section

Part Section tool produces edges with C0 continuity and large number of segments (knots), which is not very suitable as Sweep path.

This macro does the same by extracting the section edges from result of generalFuse (GFA). The result is C1-continuous and has less knots. It is still not terrific for sweeping, but much better than plain Part Section.

Requires FreeCAD v0.17+ built against OCC no less than 6.9.0 (tested on 7.0.0).
