How can I create a plane in HyperMesh? I'm not talking about surfaces, I'd like to know if it is possible to create a plane, a plane of reference (which is not geometrically limited with some lines...).

Thanks & regards,

    There is no 'infinite plane' entity in HyperMesh. But for functionalities where you need a plane of reference, you can temp. define such a plane via the N1N2N3-selector.

    or if you do scripting, use the command '*createplane' file:///C:/Altairwin64/hw10.0/help/hm/_createplane.htm
