Enlarge reference plane?

Enlarge reference plane?

Enlarge reference plane?

(OP)
Hi everyone,

As a previous user of NX7.5, I am used to being able to create datum planes and them whichever size I want. I find this easier to see what is going on.

In Catia V5 r19, when I make a reference plane, it does not appear to be possible to alter the size of the plane. I find it is too small ! I may just be being fussy and need to get over it, but if there is a way I would appreciate it if somebody could enlighten me!

Thanks,

Harley

Not the same as UGNX, but this will make all planes larger.
you can not control the size of each independently.

I had some time looking for this!
