Constructed plane creates with -1 Z vector points have +1 Z vector

So i am programming parts and when I create and measure my manual alignment points the vector of those points are positive in the Z axis. When i construct a plane using those points the vector of the plane is the exact opposite. I have had this issue very rarely in the past but for some reason its every part from a new customer (34 part numbers). Could it be CAD related? or is it something else?

Its not an issue because i know how to fix it but i want to know why its doing it. Any ideas?

  • Fix CAD vectors ? Edit: Graphic display window: CAD Vectors: drag cursor over the whole model and then hit fix vectors.


    The vectors of the CAD file are correct. The points created have the correct vector. I will give it a shot though and see what happens. Also the constructed plane is created with a best fit. not a reverse plane.
