PERP Snap in CPlane

I want to draw a line from the line above the surfaces to one of the surface edges by using perpendicular osnap in my current CPlane. Is this possible in a simple manner?

This is what happens now:

A couple options to try, that I think should accomplish what you are after evoke Elevator mode.

Accurate drawing | Rhino 3-D modeling

Thank you!
