first of all, i don't mind any language, so feel free to go.
Second of all i need to get orientation of selected Face (Face object). Orientation i mean like parallel to XY, XZ or YZ plane. Is it possible? If so, thanks in advance.
I searched and found a ParallelToXYPlaneConstraint3D, ParallelToXZPlaneConstraint3D and ParallelToYZPlaneConstraint3D (i think based on name of these objects) but that's only for Sketch3D and i have PlanarSketch.
It's a long read but well worth it with lots of examples and explanations. I learned more from this article then any other document I've ever read (in regards to Inventor anyway). http://modthemachine.typepad.com/files/mathgeometry.pdf
If memory serves you'll need to use the matrix and transformation methods.
