Setting the working plane
First we need to define on which working plane to draft our profile.
 * 1) Locate the toolbar displayed below. Depending on your Draft preferences, it may be below the main toolbar, to the left or to the right.

 * 1) Press the  button (it may be labeled "None").
 * 2) Depending on your Draft preferences, this expands a Select Plane dialog in the Tasks side panel, or a horizontal toolbar labeled "active command: Select Plane". See the Note on Draft Working Plane Button for screen captures showing the two expanded modes.
 * 3) We will leave the Offset field at a value of zero.
 * 4) Press the  button to set the working plane to XY. This closes the Tasks panel or the expanded buttons. The "Auto" button will now be relabeled as "Top" to show it is the active plane.
