What is the possibility to change the planes afterwards?

Post by Batucada »

In the previous exercises, it didn't really matter which of the planes you selected. If you now create an object on the wrong plane, what possibility is there to change it later?

Where should I go? In none of the possibilities that present themselves I can find a property entry that is in any way related to the term support.

If a sketch has attachment (as they usually do,) it is attached to a support.

Don't you know where the properties are?

Reorient sketch is perfect for planes and faces - of which we actually don't recommend to use the latter. For a more general approach you can use the AttachmentDialog.
