xy-planes VS yx-planes

Hi,
In the quick plane tab, there are different planes, What is the difference between xy or yx when you want to plot a cut plane for a 3D problem?

Hi,

If you look at Help about "Work Plane", you can see:

Quick—In the Plane list, select one of the coordinate planes xy, yz, zx, yx, zy, or xz, denoting the first and second axes of the work plane’s local coordinate system.

Thus, the difference is which coordinate is first or second.

Bye,

Jesus.
