Plane Constructors

plane(point, point, point) : Plane

Creates a plane through 3 points.
Example:
Open_body.1\Plane.1=
plane(Open_body.1\Point.1,Open_body.1\Point.2,Open_body.1\Point.3)

 

plane(a:Real, b:Real, c:Real, d:Length) : Plane

Creates a plane from its equation aX+bY+cZ=d.
Example:
Open_body.1\Plane.1=
plane(1,0,0,50mm)

creates the plane of X=50mm equation.

 

plane(line, line) : Plane

Creates a plane through 2 lines.
Example:
Open_body.1\Plane.1=
plane(Open_body.1\Line.1,Open_body.1\Line.2)

 

plane(point, line) : Plane

Creates a plane through a point and a line.
Example
Open_body.1\Plane.1=
plane(Open_body.1\Point.1,Open_body.1\Line.1)

 

plane(curve) : Plane

Creates a plane through a planar curve.
Example
Open_body.1\Plane.1=
plane(Open_body.1\Curve.1)

 

planetangent(surface, point) : Plane

Creates a plane tangent to a surface at a point.
Example
Open_body.1\Plane.1=
planetangent(Open_body.1\Sweep.1, Open_body.1\Point.1)

 

planenormal(curve, point) : Plane

Creates a plane normal to a curve at a point.
Example
Open_body.1\Plane.1=
planenormal(Open_body.1\Spline.1, Open_body.1\Point.1)

 

planeoffset(plane, length, boolean) : Plane

Creates an offset plane from another at a given distance. Set orientation boolean to false to change the side of the created plane regarding the reference plane.
Example
Open_body.1\Plane.2=
planeoffset(Open_body.1\Plane.1, 50mm, false)

 

planeoffset(plane, point) : Plane

Creates an offset plane from another passing through a point.
Example
Open_body.1\Plane.2=
planeoffset(Open_body.1\Plane.1, Open_body.1\Point.1)

 

planeangle(plane, line, angle, boolean) : Plane

Creates an angle plane. Set orientation boolean to false to change the side of the created plane regarding the reference plane.
Example
Open_body.1\Plane.2=
planeangle(Open_body.1\Plane.1, Open_body.1\Line.1, 30deg, true)
