Custom Working Plane Not Set on Arch Slab Face

Post by arxerxes »

I am unable to set a custom working plane on an Arch Slab face. Could anyone please tell me what I could be doing wrong here? I have attached a GIF for reference. I can set the working plane to Arch Wall faces but not the slab face.

The selection of a face sometimes it's not working (especially in "auto" mode), I confirm. But if you insert a file project here, I can test it to confirm, because I tried with a simple slab created by me and it's working (superior face).

After #ElonMuskBuyTwitter I'm no more on Twitter, that's really enough :-(
=> Now you can find me here on #Mastodon: https://mastodon.uno/@opensoul - I hope more people do the same :-)

Thank you; will post the project file soon. I will share a file soon to illustrate the problem.
For the time being I went ahead and created a proxy plane to circumvent that problem.

I have attached the file that I am currently working on. I am basically trying to explore how everything works and understand how best to use it for actual real world projects. Any help in that regard is appreciated. I also noticed that the Level-Axes bubbles do not show up in Tech Draw and also the Labels for the same show up somewhere else. Anyway, I will create separate posts for these two issues.
