Reference Planes

This option allows the shipyard to add reference planes for alignment into the product model. The reference planes can be marked on plates and profiles (both planar and curved), increasing the accuracy in the assembly process. The option allows the customer to define and set-up any plane, optionally restricted by a box and to use this to generate marking information on the plates and profiles. A plane can be defined as a principal plane, as a plane defined by three points or as a plane defined by a point and a normal vector. Planes to be marked are selected interactively. Hull has a function to display all planes intersecting the current panel and allows the user to pick among these.
