Suppose Some orientation is created DRW with help of two planes.

Now if I want to know later which planes are involved ,I am not bale to get that. It allows me to redefine that particular orientation but not find which particular planes were already involved.

I don't know of any referential tie between a view and the planes used to define the view -- you can delete those planes after creating the view, and the view will not fail because the references are gone.  Only the transform matrix is saved with the view.

I've been playing with a way to find the angles needed to recreate a view, using the principles of axonometric projection.  I am attaching a PDF of what I've come up with so far; maybe it will help you to find the information you need.
