Before, I could just pick the surface in 3d preview, extrude once, and the lower end of the extrude would protrude beyond all the other local clutter and I could then just cut to length. Now, I have to go back to the main editor, shift perspective perpinduclar to the surface, align the grid, select the surface, and then drag Without messing up the angles of the vertices. OR do multiple extrudes (for small surfaces).
Ok, easy solution, just select the adjacent wall in 3d, align the grid, select the surface in 3d THEN drag it. There's always an easier way to do something.
