    User2012,

    Could you please start posting your questions in the appropriate forums?

    I have moved this thread to the AutoCAD 3D Modelling & Rendering forum.

    SolidWorks and AutoCAD have different aids to define these 3 points, but once you understand what is happening in the background you should be able to create a plane (UCS) in any desired location. This is perhaps the most confusing part of 3D for beginners, but nail it and you will be much more comfortable working in 3D.

    I recommend that you type UCS Enter
    Hit F1 key
    review each of the options and bring up question here one-by-one on any option of the UCS command that you do not understand.
    For sure I will! Thanx again for your help!
