can someone show/tell me how to align Shark FX 9's "WorkPlane" with an arbitrary infinite plane??
the specific case I have is a number of equally spaced infinite planes along a 3D spline. the
starting and ending planes are well understood; it's everything in between that's a mystery.
thanks

Hovering the cursor on the planes and toggling the C key will do it.

Under the menu "Workplane" select "Select objects" then click on the infinite plane desired.
