This task shows how to take all
the basic benefits from the reference plane browser.
|
 |
The reference plane browser lists
the reference planes defined in the active structure system. The planes
come from the SfdProject data GeometricalSet or any user defined Plane
System and Sub-plane system. Several filters are provided, the plane list
can be filter by Plane system or Sub- plane system, or a user can key in a
query to select one or several planes. For the key in capability, please
check the Selection based on Formulas chapter. |

Select reference Plane contextual
menu has been clicked. The Reference Plane Browser dialog box

The panel has 2 combo filters:
Select system and Select sub-system.
The Select system lists the Plane Systems defined in the active
structure system.The Select sub-system lists the Sub-plane
Systems defined under the Plane System of the active structure system.
- The default filters are set to None. No reference plane is listed in
Select planes list, and no Sub-plane System is available in
the Select sub-system filter.
- The Select system filter can be set to All. All reference
planes are listed in Select planes list, and all Sub-plane
Systems are available in the Select sub-system filter.

In this sample, the SfdProjectData
GeometricalSet has 3 built-in Grid sets and a user defined Grid set called
User Defined - Plane system.5.
To select one plane or several planes from the WEB Sub-plane System, the
Select system filter must be set to User Defined - Plane
system.5 and the Select sub-system filter to WEB. All reference
planes under the WEB Sub-plane System are displayed in the Select
planes list.
