Rotating the Working Plane by Dragging To rotate the working plane by dragging its handles: 1. Switch to a view other than Top/Plan. The working plane cannot be rotated in Top/Plan view. 2. Click the 3D Selection tool from the Basic palette. 3. Position the cursor near the desired handle. Placing the cursor near one of the outside handles will rotate the plane about the K, J or I, J axis, indicated by a small letter and a rotation arrow next to the cursor. 4. Click to begin rotating the plane. The working plane snaps to standard preset angles (30, 45, 60, and 90 degrees) as it rotates close to them. 5. Click to place the plane in the desired location.
