[IDV #LLU-363231]: still not working for me

My bad.  It was my own personal formula, but will be in the next
release.  Here's the workaround:

Use the Misc->Define a formula  formula and the appropriate display
Select the topography as you have been
When the dialog pops up for the formula, type in make2D(slice)
When prompted for the slice, select the layer you want.

Alternatively, make a formula called Make slice 2D and set
it as make2D(slice).

Sorry for the confusion.  I was rushing to get home yesterday, but should
have looked more closely before responding.
