work-plane problem

[krasiooo]

I have define a work-plane by using vertical plane witch i slide forward to some distance from the model i design, and i want to ask the next thing: How can i rotate this plane at any angle? Thank you

I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but if I were to create a "vertical" angled workplane ... I would click the vertical plane in the origin and then the vertical axis: ex: XY plane .. Y axis that allows me to enter angle afterwards.

I'm using Inventor 2011

You can't.  Your method results in a parallel plane.

Create a sketch line or axis where you want the angled plane.
Exit sketch and start the Workplane command and click the sketch plane and the line.

A dialog box will pop up in which you can enter any angle you want.

For a compound angle do as above but put the sketch line at an angle as well.

Attach your file here if you can't figure it out.

That`s not an option for me becouse i want that work plane at specify distance from the face of my model. I hope you understand me now 🙂
