In a Draft document, this command allows you to create a plane for positioning a 3D Dimension.

 

Creation stages / Use:

 

This command is available by clicking the "+" in the Plane filed of the 3d dimension, but also by selecting the Construction > Planes > View plane... command from the drop-down menu.

 

  1. Select the first geometry.

  2. Select the second geometry.

  3. If the first 2 geometries aren't enough to define a plane (2 aligned points for example), select a third geometry.

  4. Validate by clicking .

 

 

The 3D dimension is registered in a plane. This is automatically defined based on the selected geometries. For example, by selecting 2 parallel linear edges or a linear edge and a point. In other cases, you must create it manually.
