PIO's on the working plane

[GWS]

It would be really great if PIO's such as nuts and bolts could be placed on the working plane and not automatically align themsevles to the ground plane.

In 2011 they can but it's a bit of a PITA because of the tendency for the tools to re-activate the layer plane when picked.

Try this,

Make a Plane and save it in the W.P. pallette

Make the working plane mode active,

Select the bolt tool; the layer plane will become active again }:-(

Double click the saved working plane; it should become active and the bolt tool stay selected.

Place the bolt.

Doesn't always work, and I haven't found a repeatable pattern why or when......
