• <x1>, <y1>, <z1>, <x2>, <y2>, <z2>, <x3>, <y3> and <z3> are three points used to define a general plane. Here <x1>, <y1> and <z1> is the origin of the drawing coordinate system, <x2>, <y2> and <z2> is a point on the positive u-axis and <x3>, <y3> and <z3> is a point with an arbitrary positive v-coordinate.

• CL [+-<value>] denotes a plane perpendicular to the y-axis located at the given y coordinate. <value> is a positive real number.

• BL [+-<value>] denotes a plane perpendicular to the z-axis located at the given z coordinate. <value> is a positive real number.

• FR<frame no> [+-<value>] denotes a plane perpendicular to the x-axis located at the given frame position. If <frame no> is a negative number or contains decimals, the actual frame term must be surrounded by apostrophes ('), for example, 'FR105.5'+100.

• X:=<x-coordinate> denotes a plane perpendicular to the x-axis located at the given coordinate.

• Y:=<y-coordinate> denotes a plane perpendicular to the y-axis located at the given coordinate.

• Z:=<z-coordinate> denotes a plane perpendicular to the z-axis located at the given coordinate.

• <panel> is the name of a panel which defines the plane of the drawing.

• REFLECT is an optional keyword to be used if the plane is to be defined by the panel in its reflected position.

• <stiffener no>, <bracket no> and <flange no> are the component numbers on a component on the panel used to define the plane of the drawing.

• <curve_name> is the name of a curve stored on SB_CGDB which defines the plane of the drawing.
