# Workplane

## **Orientation | Workplane**

This menu provides tools to set the CAD’s UCS and Workplane based on the point cloud.

The menu includes the following options:

- [Floor + Wall](/v1/docs/cloudworx-floor-wall)
- [Wall + Wall](/v1/docs/cloudworx-wall-wall)
- [Wall](/v1/docs/cloudworx-wall)
- [On Slice](/v1/docs/cloudworx-on-slice)
- [2 Points](/v1/docs/cloudworx-2-points)
- [Change Origin](/v1/docs/cloudworx-change-origin) ![image-20230908-143738.png](https://cdn.document360.io/820e11db-8ed5-45ae-ac86-f6b77dcb2aa7/Images/Documentation/image-20230908-143738.png)

A Workplane in CAD software is like a virtual piece of paper for the drawing to be created on. However, in CAD software, the user works in a 3D space, so the positioning of the Workplane in relation to screen pixels is crucial. For example, when drawing a wall, it’s essential to have a Workplane parallel to the wall to achieve accurate results.

### **Common Features of Menu Options**

The **Wall** tools fit temporary patches on a point cloud using point picks selected by the user which can then be used to define vertical and horizontal features to set the UCS to.
