Method that creates a new work plane through the input line at the specified angle from the input plane. This method is not currently supported when creating a work plane within an assembly.
Name | Type | Description |
Line | Object | Input object that represents a line. This object can be a linear Edge, WorkAxis, or SketchLine object. |
Plane | Object | Input object that represents a Plane. This object can be a planar Face, WorkPlane, or Sketch object. |
Angle | Variant | Input Variant that defines the offset angle of the work plane from the input plane. This can be a numeric value or a string. The offset angle of a work plane is always defined by a parameter. When a new work plane is created that requires a parameter, that parameter is automatically created when the work plane is created. If a numeric value is supplied the new parameter is set to the value specified. The input value is in radians. If a string is supplied it is used as the expression for the newly created parameter and will be interpreted the same as if the user entered it in a dialog. This means if a value is specified without a unit qualifier it will default to the current document length unit. The following is a valid entry for the angle, assuming the parameter d2 already exists and defines an angle, "d2 + 10 deg." The positive angle direction is computed by crossing the axis vector with the plane normal vector. |
Construction | Boolean | Optional Input Boolean that specifies whether to create the work plane as a construction plane or not. The default is False, which indicates to create a standard work plane, not a construction work plane. A construction work plane is hidden from the user and is not displayed graphically or listed in the browser. If work features are created as construction:
This is an optional argument whose default value is False. |
