Command Line

  • AutoCAD / BricsCAD: CWWPMODE | ON/OFF

The Workplane follows the UCS and provides a fast, easy, and accurate support when creating 2D drawings from 3D data. When turned on, all points that are snapping to the point cloud will be projected to the Workplane. However, the SmartPicks will override the Workplane when both are on.
