KeyCreator / Create / Plane / Plane by Menu
Use the Plane by Menu function to create a plane by using menu options to define it.
Using the Function:
3 PositionsCreates a new plane based on the plane created by three positions you indicate. The positive direction for the X axis passes from the first position to the second position. The position of the third point relative to the other two positions determines the perpendicular direction of the positive Y axis and consequently, the Z axis.
The plane entity created using this option will be associative. As the entities from which the plane was defined are re-located or modified, the plane will update accordingly. Line/PosSelect a position and the two end points of a selected line entity to define a plane.
The plane entity created using this option will be associative. As the entities from which the plane was defined are re-located or modified, the plane will update accordingly. Nrm/TanThis option allows you to define a plane by selecting a normal and tangent. When this option is selected, two additional options appear: Pick and Exist Pt, which are used to define the origin for the plane or view. CP/DepthThis setting defines the display view from an indicated Construction Plane and Depth.
The plane entity created using this option will be non-associative. The plane is not associated with the entities used to define it and therefore will not update when those entities are re-located or modified 2 PositionsSelect two positions to define the Z axis. The plane will be created normal to that Z axis.
The plane entity created using this option will be non-associative. the plane is not associated with the entities used to define it and therefore will not update when those entities are re-located or modified Example Create Plane By Menu Key In, 3 Position, Key-In: |
