Currently there are a number of built-in planes like Plane.XY, YZ, front, top, etc. I propose adding a
Plane.isometric
built-in plane that will (1) allow aligning objects to the viewers isometric view direction (tested against OCP CAD Viewer and CQ-editor) (2) Provide access to a less trivial plane definition that could help improve robustness of unit tests (none of thePlane.isometric
axes align with the global XYZ axes). There may also be some benefits to the 2D exporters, since providing an easier-to-access isometric view direction could be helpful for e.g. "more intelligible" 2D representations of 3D objects.
