Is there really no way to rotate a construction plane?

[Helmi74]

I'm just curious and maybe it's just me but i just wanted to rotate a construction plane and noticed it isn't possible.

What i wanted to do: Creating a sketch in relation to an existing body. That sketch should be a defined distance from the existing body and then rotated backwards by 30 degrees.

I though doing this with a construction plane would be the way to go but then i assume i would have to add one or more additional geometry to create this construction plane to. Why not just enable me to rotate the offset plane? All i seem to be able to do is to make it offset to an existing face.

Any hint? Probably i'm just totally missing something!?

Hi Frustrates, ... and Smoothers,

The natural way in the circumstance is ....

• create a component
• in it, draw a sketch on one of the component's origin plane
• rotate, translate, ... the component ... with a drawn-in-it sketch ... at will.

I have forgotten to add that:

• using coordinates (origin, axes) of both a parent and a child component it could be possible to position the latter parametrically ... but only if TF360 add Position Feature to recalculation (parametric) loop. Have a Hope !!!
