Using Offset Planes

You can define a plane to use as a temporary reference for positioning other elements using the Offset Plane command.

Before you begin: Select a scenario and open.
  1. Click Offset Plane .
    The Offset Plane context toolbar appears. See Offset Plane.
  2. Use the Define Plane to define the plane:



  3. Use the Define Origin to define the origin.
  4. Click OK .
    The plane is defined. The white rectangle changes to a blue, and remains on the reference element, as the following image shows.



    The reference plane can be used as a reference to position the other elements.

    For example, this plane is used as reference when you use Align Sides command.
