Hi, I need to crate a part_plane using 2 points as reference (each as a vertex of a plane, placed diagonaly). Is there a way to do it?
P.S points are selected randomly on a tube

Re: Creating plane from 2 points
If you have selectable points on the tube you can attach the plane with attachment mode "Align O-X-Y". As noted, this will not be unique.OlegTemple wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2023 2:21 pm Hi, I need to crate a part_plane using 2 points as reference (each as a vertex of a plane, placed diagonaly).

Re: Creating plane from 2 points
An example may illustrate this:
The plane is attached to two opposite points of the heptagon: The plane can be turned around the connection line (file attached in this state):
