Believe it or not, I've been programming in PC-DMIS for over 10 years now and I still don't understand Work Planes. I've always figured a way around it and told myself I'd learn it later when I had time.
I was having trouble with something today and finally asked a co-worker for help. He saw what I was trying to do, changed the work plane and everything's fine.
If you look at a circle from the proper workplane, it looks like a circle.
If you look at a circle from improper workplane, 'the side', it looks like a line. A line that has the same length as the diameter of the circle, if you savvy.
