ModelData_Plane

### Table of Contents

Defines a plane.

A plane is defined by an axis placement.

A plane is parameterized as follows: S(u,v) = P + u * Dx + v * Dy, where

• P is an origin point,
• Dx and Dy are directions (unit vectors) of X and Y axes respectively,
• u, v belongs to (-infinity, +infinity).
