coordinate system

May 25, 2005 3 Replies

Hi



Is there a way to rotate and position a newly created coordinate system and then create planes on the axis of the coordinate system.



If not is there a solidworks addin that can be purchased?



Thanks



There is probably more the one way to do this. Sketch lines for the three x,y,and z axis. Insert, Reference Geometry, Coordinate System using these sketches. Using the sketches, insert Reference Geometry, Planes. Best Regards, Devon T. Sowell

How about creating the planes first, then apply the coordinate system to that?

When you think about it there has to be three points to define a Csys. That will also define one plane.

It is an interesting thought to have a copy of Front, Right and Top go alone with a Csys.
