EM.Picasso has a special feature that makes construction of planar structures quite easy very convenient and straightforward. '''<u>The active work horizontal Z-plane of the project workspace active trace or object set group is always set at as the active work plane of the active traceproject workspace.''' In [[EM.Cube]]'s other modules, all objects are drawn in the XY plane (z = 0) by default. In [[Planar Module]], </u> That means all new objects are drawn on a horizontal plane that is located at the Z-coordinate of the currently active trace. As you change the active trace group or add a new traceone, you will also change the active work planechanges accordingly.
EM.Picasso does not allow construction of 3D CAD objects. Instead, you draw the cross section of prismatic objects as planar [[Surface Objects|surface objects]] parallel to the XY plane. [[EM.Cube]] then automatically extrudes these cross sections and constructs and displays 3D prisms over them. The prisms extend all the way across the thickness of the host substrate layer.
