Creating a parallel plane in a Synchronous part
Question
How can you generate a parallel plane in a synchronous part model? The parallel option does not seem to exist.
Answer
When you generate a coincident plane in a Synchronous part model, it is immediately selected for move with the steering wheel. Hence to make a parallel plane simply select the primary axis of the steering wheel and move it the appropriate distance. If required you can create a copy of the plane by holding the Ctrl key down at the same time. Creating angled planes follow a similar workflow by using the steering wheel to rotate.
