Slice a 3D object into layers based on a specified thickness.

This function takes a 3D object and slices it into multiple layers according to the specified thickness. It creates a new collection for the slices and optionally creates text labels for each slice if the indexes parameter is set. The slicing can be done in either 2D or 3D based on the user’s selection. The function also handles the positioning of the slices based on the object’s bounding box.

Parameters:

ob (bpy.types.Object) – The 3D object to be sliced.
