If you have the Clipper mousemodes active (just do “clipper spotlight #{any atomic model}” - reminds me that I’ve been meaning to add a ribbon menu section allowing you to manually turn them on/off) then you can get the effect you want with ctrl-right-click-and-drag.

The closest thing I can find is the “clip” Right Mouse Mode.

This translates either the front clip plane (right-click-drag) or the back clip plane (option-right-click-drag) but not both at the same time.

Would it be possible to add a modifier (e.g. shift-right-click-drag) to translate both clip planes at the same time?

Cheers
