How to show a Section with no background

I want a structural section of part of my building. I don’t want the stuff in the background showing.
I want this

Not this

I accomplished this by putting a surface in front of the background to block it out. That is kind of awkward to do. Is there a better way?

Check out the styles panel

As explained you can set the background to be ‘white’.
You can also use a grouped white-face on its own layer placed to obscure objects behind the section cut.
Alternatively play with your Fog settings - see Nick Sonder’s work…

you can use another section too to get this result, see Nicks workflow too.

Thanks.
Can you tell me where to look for Nick Sonder’s work?

Also, I didn’t express myself clearly. It isn’t the sky and ground that I wanted to turn white (though I would do that also). I wanted to keep other objects past the section plane from showing up. For example a door or window that is on the other side of the section plane.

Another way is to create a Group from Slice and a layer that only has that on it.
