Work Plane

[esmith53]

It would be handy to allow a plane to be created based upon two coplanar axes.  Right now Inventor allows for a plane to be created based upon two coplanar edges; seems to me using axes would be the same result.

Right now I have a sketch with a line drawn at a specific angle from vertical and another sketch which is symmetric to it about the XY plane.  I need to create a plane through those two lines in two sketches.  This is a bit cumbersome because I have to create and dimension two sketches in order to create the plane.  Alternatively, I could create an axis through the first sketched line and mirror it over and use those two axes to create the plane...much quicker.
