You can sketch an open or closed plane composed of lines and arcs. A point is generated at each pick position in the drawing area. Lines or arcs connect these points and result in a plane.

During the input you are supported from the sketcher which offers some possibilities depending on the design environment. For example, you can create a line perpendicular to its predecessor line. Is none of such suggestions possible in the respective situation a point relative or a point polar is generated (see parameter relorpol. Its reference point is the first point you entered.

To create arcs please press the middle mouse button in the drawing area. In the following you can

You can complete the plane by picking the start point. The result is a closed plane.

You can terminate the plane by picking an icon of the main menu. The lines and arcs remain, no plane is generated.
