If you can get the correct views with the cutting planes in the PROJECT2 command then in the 2D script you use it twice.
PROJECT2 - top view with desired cutting planes
if show_elevation = 1 then
ADD2 x,y
PROJECT2 - side view with desired cutting planes
DEL 1
endif
If you need to use an actual CUTPLANE in the 3D script to get the projection you want then use the if/then command to control the CUTPLANE and CUTEND as I mensiomed before (but you won’t need the GLOB_VIEW_TYPE = 2).
The thing is you will need to turn off the CUTPLANE for one of the passes.
Again this may not be the best scripting but I would do this.
show_elevation_orig = show_elevation
show_elevation = 0 !!!!temporarily turn of show in elevation mode
PROJECT2 - top view with or without built in cutting planes
show_elevation = show_elevation_orig !!!!set elevation mode back to original
if show_elevation = 1 then
ADD2 x,y
PROJECT2 - side view with or without built in cutting planes
DEL 1
endif
