Appeal No. 1997-2898 Application 08/368,239 plane pairs and changing the distances between the respective pairs. Claim 8 "means for defining two pairs of parallel planes, the parallel planes including first and second parent planes for indicating two fixed faces of the three dimensional drawing and first and second offset planes for indicating two variable faces of the three dimensional drawing, the first parent plane being parallel with the first offset plane, the second parent plane being parallel with the second offset plane." More specifically, the claim recites two pairs of parent/offset planes in a three-dimensional drawing. The claim does not recite selecting faces of a three-dimensional object. 11Page: Previous 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
