Creates a plane view from the currently selected grid plane of a reference grid. By, default the grid plane view is a 2D view that displays all objects associated with the grid plane.
By default, the name of the new grid plane view is populated with the name of the grid plane that the view is created from.

The origin of the Local Coordinate System corresponds to the grid plane.
More than one 3D View window can be displayed at the same time, allowing you to have different views of the model.
Right-clicking on a view tab displays options. These options change depending on what view you are in.
