CATIA V5 area rule

[knightzero3d]

Hello everyone, my question is in regard to ploting the cross-sectional area of an object (in this case, fuselage) vs it's length. Is there a way in which CATIA would do this for me? If not, how about creating planes along the fuselage and then somehow calculating the cross-sectional area of that plane? How do I even calculate a cross-sectional area of a body??

I know that was a lot of questions. Any answers to any of the above questions would be a big help! Thank you!!
