[. . . ] 2 Select the Create Plane tool
and click in the preview image to add the corner node. Try to use a rectangular object or a plane area in the image as a guide when creating the perspective plane. To help with node placement, hold down the "x" key to zoom into the preview image.
Note: As you add corner nodes, you can delete the last node if it's not correct by pressing the Backspace key (Windows) or Delete key (Mac OS).
3 Select the Edit Plane tool
and do one or more of the following:
· To reshape the perspective plane, drag a corner node. · To adjust the grid, enter a value in the Grid Size text box or click the down arrow and move the slider. You can also
adjust the grid size when the Create Plane tool is selected.
· To move the plane, click inside the plane and drag. · To scale the plane, drag an edge node in a segment of the bounding box.

User Guide
Dragging an edge node to increase the size of a plane to accommodate your edits
Note: The bounding box and grid of a perspective plane is normally blue. If there's a problem with the placement of the corner nodes, the plane is invalid, and the bounding box and grid turn either red (severe problems resolving the plane's aspect ratio) or yellow (problems resolving the vanishing points of the perspective plane). When your plane is invalid, move the corner nodes until the bounding box and grid are blue.
4 (Optional) To tear off a perpendicular plane, select the Create Plane or Edit Plane tool and Ctrl-drag (Windows) or Command-drag (Mac OS) an edge node along the bounding box.
You can create as many planes as you want. To paint, clone, or transform and maintain a consistent scale and orientation, it's best to tear off additional planes rather than create unrelated planes. If a newly created plane does not properly line up with the image, select the Edit Plane tool and move a corner node to adjust the plane. Adjustments made to connected planes are constrained; when you adjust one plane, all the connected planes are affected.

4
Tearing off multiple planes keeps the planes related to each other so your edits are scaled and oriented in the proper perspective.
If you have overlapping planes, Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command-click (Mac OS) to cycle through the overlapping planes.

Vanishing Point tools
Vanishing Point tools behave like their counterparts in the main Photoshop toolbox. You can use the same keyboard shortcuts for setting tool options. Selecting a tool changes the available options in the Vanishing Point dialog box.
Edit Plane tool
Selects, edits, moves, and resizes planes.
Create Plane tool Defines the four corner nodes of a plane and also adjusts the size and shape of the plane. Ctrldrag (Windows) or Command-drag (Mac OS) an edge node to tear off a perpendicular plane. Marquee tool Makes square or rectangular selections. Drag in the preview image to create a selection. Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Mac OS) a selection to tear off a copy of the selection. Ctrl-drag (Windows) or Command-drag (Mac OS) a selection to fill the selection with a source image. Specify a value for Feather to blur the edges of the selection. Specifying the Opacity determines to what degree the selection obscures or reveals the image beneath it. Use the Healing menu to choose a blending mode: choose Off so the selection doesn't blend with the colors, shadows, and textures of the surrounding pixels; choose Luminance to blend the selection with the lighting of the surrounding pixels; or choose On to blend the selection with the color, lighting, and shading of surrounding pixels. Use the Move Mode menu to determine the behavior when you move a selection. [. . . ] See vector graphics
