Plane
=====
+
+Plane feature creates a new constructive plane.
+
+Plane is a construction object that can be created in a part or in a partset. To create a plane:
+
+#. select in the Main Menu *Construction - > Plane* item or
+#. click |plane_button.icon| **Point** button in the toolbar
+
+There are 4 algorithms for creation of a Plane:
+
+.. image:: images/plane_by_three_points_32x32.png
+ :align: left
+**By three points** creates a plane by three points.
+
+.. image:: images/plane_by_line_and_point_32x32.png
+ :align: left
+**By line and point** creates a plane by a line and a point.
+
+.. image:: images/plane_by_other_plane_32x32.png
+ :align: left
+**By other plane** creates a plane parallel to another plane.
+
+.. image:: images/plane_by_two_parallel_planes_32x32.png
+ :align: left
+**By two parallel planes** creates a plane between two parallel planes.
+
+
+By three points
+---------------
+
+.. image:: images/Plane1.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::
+ **By three points**
+
+A plane is created by selecting three points in a viewer.
+
+**TUI Commands**:
+
+.. py:function:: model.addPlane(Part_doc, model.selection("VERTEX", "Box_1_1/Back&Box_1_1/Left&Box_1_1/Top"), model.selection("VERTEX", "Box_1_1/Front&Box_1_1/Right&Box_1_1/Top"), model.selection("VERTEX", "Box_1_1/Front&Box_1_1/Left&Box_1_1/Bottom"))
+
+ :param part: The current part object.
+ :param object: Vertex 1.
+ :param object: Vertex 2.
+ :param object: Vertex 3.
+ :return: Result object.
+
+Result
+""""""
+
+The Result of the operation will be a plane:
+
+.. image:: images/CreatedPlane1.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::
+ **A plane by three points**
+
+**See Also** a sample TUI Script of :ref:`tui_create_plane_points` operation.
+
+
+By line and point
+-----------------
+
+.. image:: images/Plane2.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::
+ **Line and point**
+
+A plane is created by selecting a linear edge and point. It is possible to create a new plane perpendicular to the selected edge.
+
+**TUI Commands**:
+
+.. py:function:: model.addPlane(Part_doc, model.selection("EDGE", "Box_1_1/Left&Box_1_1/Top"), model.selection("VERTEX", "Box_1_1/Front&Box_1_1/Right&Box_1_1/Bottom"), False)
+
+ :param part: The current part object.
+ :param object: A line.
+ :param object: A point.
+ :param boolean: Is perpendicular to line.
+ :return: Result object.
+
+Result

+
+The Result of the operation will be a plane:
+
+.. image:: images/CreatedPlane2.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::

+
+**See Also** a sample TUI Script of :ref:`tui_create_plane_line` operation.
+
+
+By other plane
+--------------
+
+.. image:: images/Plane3.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::
+ **By other plane**
+
+A plane is created by selecting an already existing plane (planar face). There are following possibilities to define a new plane:
+
+.. image:: images/plane_by_distance_from_other_24x24.png
+ :align: left
+
+By distance from the selected plane.
+
+.. image:: images/plane_by_coincident_to_point_24x24.png
+ :align: left
+
+By coincidence with a point.
+
+.. image:: images/plane_by_rotation_24x24.png
+ :align: left
+
+By rotation around an edge by a specified angle.
+
+**TUI Commands**:
+
+.. py:function:: model.addPlane(Part_doc, model.selection("FACE", "Box_1_1/Front"), 10, False)
+
+ :param part: The current part object.
+ :param object: A plane.
+ :param real: An offset.
+ :param boolean: Is reverse.
+ :return: Result object.
+
+Result
+""""""
+
+The Result of the operation will be a plane parallel to already existing one:

+.. image:: images/CreatedPlane3.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::
+ **Plane parallel to a planar face**
+
+**See Also** a sample TUI Script of :ref:`tui_create_plane_plane` operation.
+
+
+By two parallel planes
+----------------------
+
+.. image:: images/Plane4.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::
+ **By two parallel planes**
+
+A plane is created by selecting two parallel planes. A new plane will be defined between them.
+
+**TUI Commands**:
+
+.. py:function:: model.addPlane(Part_doc, model.selection("FACE", "Box_1_1/Left"), model.selection("FACE", "Box_1_1/Right"))
+
+ :param part: The current part object.
+ :param object: A plane 1.
+ :param object: A plane 2.
+ :return: Result object.
+
+Result
+""""""
+
+The Result of the operation will be a plane created between two selected planes:

+.. image:: images/CreatedPlane4.png
+ :align: center
+
+.. centered::

+
+**See Also** a sample TUI Script of :ref:`tui_create_plane_parallel` operation.
