Flip Control for Work Plane-based Families

After you save and load a work plane-based family into the project, you can flip it about its work plane in
a view.
Select the family instance in the project, and a Flip Work Plane control displays
Work Plane control to rotate the family instance 180 degrees about the x-axis of the work plane. You can
also right-click the instance, and click Flip Work Plane.

Creating Solid and Void Geometry

The tools you use to create solid and void geometry are available only in the Family Editor. For more
information, see
For detailed information about creating families, including tutorials for creating geometry using the Family
Editor, see

Creating an Extrusion

For information about using extrusions in families, see
A solid or void extrusion is the easiest form to create. You sketch a 2D profile of the form on a work plane,
and then extrude that profile perpendicular to the plane on which you sketched it.

and always vertical.
