The CenterPlane element is the nominal location point and a unit vector normal of the center plane of the opposite parallel planes feature. The location point is both midway between the sides and between the ends (real or virtual). Or in other words, the sides are located half the width away from the location point in directions along and against the center plane normal. The ends are located half the length away from the location point in directions along and against the length vector.

Complex Type OppositeParallelPlanesFeatureNominalType
Annotations
The OppositeParallelPlanesFeatureNominalType defines the opposite parallel planes feature nominal information for an individual opposite parallel planes feature.
The id attribute is the QIF id of the feature, used for referencing.
