Project Geometry - Origin Planes

[danny.lewisA9QBW]

I've seen a lot of similar ideas to this, but I would want to propose the following:

Right next to the 'Project Geometry' button in the sketch toolbar, i would want three tiny icons to signify auto-projecting either an origin plane, axis, or point.

The icon would expand on selection to dictate which specific plane would be projected. Upon click, it would just run a simple script to project that plane onto the currently open sketch. I've included examples of what the scripts would be (see attached Zip file) as well as an IPT that contains the scripts in it.

Example of toolbar

Example of expanded selection

Example of the 'simple scripts':

' Basic error handling
On Error Resume Next

' Project Origin Point into active sketch
Dim oDoc As PartDocument = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Dim oSketch As PlanarSketch = ThisApplication.ActiveEditObject

If TypeOf oSketch Is PlanarSketch Then
    Dim oOriginPoint As WorkPoint = oDoc.ComponentDefinition.WorkPoints.Item("Center Point")
    oSketch.AddByProjectingEntity(oOriginPoint)
End If
