(OP)
thread562-251330: choose orientation of sketch plane

Hi guys,
I work for Siemens on the Solid Edge development team and I saw the above thread from awhile ago where a user asked if it was possible to change the orientation of an angled reference plain. As someone else noted, when you create a coincident reference plain on a surface you are given several orientation options on the PromptBar. However when you create a plain on another reference plain there are no options. In the case of an angled plain, after you have finished creating your angled plain, go back and create another angled plain choosing the first angled plain and a plain perpendicular to that plain for your references, this will allow you to choose the opposite orientation of what you were given when you created the first angled plain. I hope this helps someone out there!
