Sketch Plane / Base Plane for curves

Civil3D

Hi All,
Is there a way in C3D Dynamo to use a sketchplane/Base plane to draw shapes?
what i am intending to do is create sweeps, but i need to draw the shapes(or rotate the shapes) to the direction of the sweep.
Im looking for something similar as the Sketchplane inside revit

Try using coordinate systems. For example, if you want to sweep along a path, use Curve.CoordinateSystemAtParameter and then Point.ByCartesianCoordinates to create points/shapes in local coordinates.

Thanks mate,
Exactly what i was looking for, i can use those point to crete my shapes/polygons and sweep them.

Cheers
