Checking curves and surfaces

Checking curves and surfaces

Checking curves and surfaces

(OP)
Is it possible to check or highlight what curves or surfaces lie in the same plane. Also what license do you need to do this.

Cheers

RE: Checking curves and surfaces

You can sort of do this.  Create a Sketch on the plane, then on the Visualization Toolbar, the 2nd icon has 3 icons on the Visu3D Sub-toolbar that change the visibility of geometry not in the sketch. The defaul is everything is visible. The second icon has non-sketch geometry visible, but dimmed.  The third icon has non-sketch geometry invisible.   

This does not work for gemetry on the same plane, but not in the same sketch - it is treated as non-sketch geometry, and gets dimmed or hidden.
