How can I get the horizontal area of a cell?
As far as I know does magSf() give you the vertical face area. Or is there any way to indicate the direction of the cell face vector?

I need this value in order to get the ground area of the cells at a patch. Another option would be deviding the volume of the cells by the cell hight. But I couldn't find a way to get this value either.

Thanks...
