I think You cannot do it with NX, but there are other CAD systems.
In other case You can lay a plane on three points created 'on surface' of the facet body.

For what do you need to select the IPW?

In order to use it to create planes to build a fixture.
 
If you turn on "Point on Face" on the Selection Bar, you can pick points on the facet body of the IPW to define planes.

Thanks.

Is the solution I used now.

But I´d like something better.

Is possible?
