Using Orient to piece a cube together

Hi,

Can someone please have pity with me and explain a bit how Orient works!?

Starting from a simple cube I’m trying to use one of it’s faces and orient it back to the original position of the cube. Just to understand how Orient works.

You might think I’m getting a weird result, but then you should have seen some of the other…

Your example can be simplified but it’s still boring :wink: so I added the white group:

I know how Orient works, I’m not so sure about the second ‘P’ (Plane) output of Planar which seems to be causing you grief. Pick a more interesting objective and I might have another look. Or follow my motto… Keep It Simple! :sunglasses:
