Help i don't understand whats going on!

I have been trying to follow the “Introduction to Character Animation” tutorial and I try to create a plane in the Front view it creates a plane for the top view what am I doing wrong?:(:frowning: thanks for your help

frosty

just rotate it after you created it. here’s a video: http://www.screencast.com/users/Neal/folders/Flash/media/03c243b3-30a3-4d52-ae05-99de88eab3f3

that video is from one of the best sites for beginners, the tufts university corse for free online at http://www.gryllus.net/Blender/3D.html . it has a very plain main page but dont be fooled, click on the variouse bars, it has alot of tutorials both video and print, and the learning units which will build up your skills. if you look in video tutorials you can find one that covers most beginner questions.

or in user preferences(edit methods…I think)select “aligned to view” this will align a geometries Z axis based on the viewing direction in which it was created.

Thank you that helped
