    Plane

    A plane is a four-sided 2D shape. It can be a square or a rectangle, with two dimensions (width and height) in any orientation.

    Plane shapes

    A Default plane: height and width both set to a size of 10 units, and 3 subdivisions

    B Square plane with 2 subdivisions along the width and 1 along the length

    C Rectangular plane (10 x 2) with no subdivisions

    You can customize the shape of a plane with these shape properties:

    Plane shape properties

    Property: Function:
    Axis Choose the starting orientation for the plane. Default value is Up.
    Right Width is along the the z-axis, height is along the the y-axis, normals point towards the X-axis in the positive direction.
    Left Width is along the the y-axis, height is along the the z-axis, normals point towards the X-axis in the negative direction.
    Up Width is along the the X-axis, height is along the the z-axis, normals point towards the y-axis in the positive direction.
    Down Width is along the the z-axis, height is along the the X-axis, normals point towards the y-axis in the negative direction.
    Forward Width is along the the y-axis, height is along the the X-axis, normals point towards the z-axis in the positive direction.
    Backward Width is along the the X-axis, height is along the the y-axis, normals point towards the z-axis in the negative direction.
    Width Set the width of the plane in meters. The default value is 10. The minimum value is 1.
    Length Set the length of the plane in meters. The default value is 10. The minimum value is 1.
    Width Segments Set the number of divisions to use for the width of the plane. For example, if you use a value of 3, ProBuilder produces a plane with four "columns". If you specify 3 for both the Width Segments and Length Segments, ProBuilder builds a plane with 16 faces. The default value is 3. The minimum value is 0.
    Length Segments Set the number of divisions to use for the length of the plane. For example, using a value of 3 produces four "rows". If you specify 2 for both the Width Segments and 1 for the Length Segments, ProBuilder builds a plane with six faces. The default value is 3. The minimum value is 0.
