why so complex for just displaying a slice

Hello...

I was curious if this is the only way to display a slice in z direction
(or any direction as a matter of fact).

I saw one of the examples to do that:

Its uses these filters:

      part 1:
vtkPlaneSource
vtkTransform
vtkTransformPolyDataFilter
vtkProbeFilter
vtkCastToConcrete
vtkTriangleFilter
vtkStripper

     part 2:
vtkLookupTable
vtkPolyDataMapper
vtkActor
AddActor

Can there be not a better way of taking a slice
out of the 3d data set and display it ?

Thanks very much...
