NX8.5 datum plane

NX8.5 datum plane

NX8.5 datum plane

(OP)
I am trying to do something incredibly simple here.
I am trying to created to inferred datum from from another datum plane at a distance (at a cylinder centerline), but it defaults to 90 degrees from the initial datum plane, so when I try to change the 90 to zero degrees the datum plane is still placed at 90 degrees, and it seems like I cannot change it.
So how can I change the default from 90 degrees to zero degrees?

This is so dang frustrating.

RE: NX8.5 datum plane

Not sure what it is that you're trying to do. Could you at least provide a picture of where you're at when you try to add that last Datum Plane?
