Detailed Description

Represents a section
Section consists of "chained_entity", a chain or a single entity of edge or curve.

The entire chain(or a single entity) may be used by the section or only a portion of the chain (or single entity) might be used. The portion of the chain (or single entity) that is used is defined by the "start_connector" and "end_connector".

start_connector: It represents the start of the portion of the chain (or single entity) that is used. If "start_connector" is null (Nothing), then the start point of the chained_entity along its "natural" direction is used.

start_connector_intersection_point: The point of intersection of the "chained_entity" and the "start_connector". This is used to determine what portion of the chain to use in case the "start_connector" intersects the "chained_entity" in multiple locations.

end_connector: It represents the end of the portion of the chain (or single entity) that is used.
