| Oct 2, 2017 at 14:29 | comment | added | Jason B. | @Zhao - this is a real shame, but yes it is definitely broken with the recent update. | |
| Oct 2, 2017 at 11:07 | comment | added | Letshin | I've checked and can confirm that your method works in Mathematica 11.0, but not 11.2, or v10 | |
| Oct 2, 2017 at 10:11 | comment | added | Letshin | Hi, I tried adapting your solution but have encountered an error... "Part::pkspec1: The expression {{0.447167,0.48295,0.931799},{0.362764,0.44467,0.778682},BooleanRegion[#1&&,{InfinitePlane[{{1.,0.5,1.},{0,0.25,0}... cannot be used as a part specification." Strangely enough, it was working yesterday but I have no idea what happened. Would you have any advice on this error please? | |

| Feb 8, 2017 at 20:27 | comment | added | Jason B. | @Doppler - see the edit, if you have 2 points, one the base and the other where you want to put the plane, then you can make the InfinitePlane pretty easily | |

| Feb 8, 2017 at 19:23 | comment | added | Doppler | Thank you very much! Just to clarify, I will need to define the infinite plane such that it is orthogonal to my "axis line"? | |
