Entity definition

The planar extent defines the extent along the two axes of the two-dimensional coordinate system, independently of its position. If the planar extent is used within a three-dimensional coordinate system, it defines the extent along the x and y axes.

NOTE  Entity adapted from planar_extent defined in ISO10303-46
HISTORY  New entity in IFC2x2.
