Arranging Planes

Hello everybody,

I have a confusion.

I would like to create datum planes, which allows user to get two inputs; distance from reference datum plane & number of planes. For instance, user want to create 5 planes which have 200mm distance between each plane. I have done the distance part, but i cannot find the part of code that change the number of planes.

I use VB for coding.

Can somebody help me with this issue.

If you are using the "number of planes" option in the datum plane command, it will create that number of individual datum plane features. You cannot go back to the datum plane feature and edit the number of planes; you can only delete ones you do not want or add new ones.

If you need to control the number of planes via a parameter, I would suggest creating the initial plane then using pattern feature or pattern geometry to make the offset planes.
