You cannot transfer planes from SpaceClaim to Mechanical. However, you can move and copy a suface just as easy as a plane in SpaceClaim. Can you use the surfaces in Mechanical to locate any path points? You could also create origins in SpaceClaim and this will transfer to Mechanical as local coordinate systems. You can also copy and move origins in SpaceClaim. You can make constuction paths from coordinate systems in Mechanical.

But why use a virtual topology edge for the path? Why not just make the in SpaceClaim as a split in the surface?
