Pinned Planes

  • In the graphics area, pinned datums are also given a green color and they have their corners rounded. The image here shows the plane selected to emphasize the color.
  • The pinned datum reference is also highlighted when the plane is selected.
  • If any of the pin references are deleted, the plane is automatically unpinned.
  • You can NOT pin datum planes created from temporary references (using ALT+SHIFT.)
  • Only datum planes that are NOT moved from their original position can be pinned. Planes moved away, and then back to their creation references, CANNOT be pinned.
  • Planes created using the Build Plane tool guide cannot be pinned. The references used in creating these planes are temporary and are not remembered outside of the tool.
