Hi niko, also there is another thing coming in v2 (it is in the current v2 beta) that is kind of related which you may be interested in, which is the ability to use the edit frame to "flatten" a set of points and manipulate them:



If you mostly care about getting those points in a line and not so much about keeping the outer 2 ones in exactly the same spot, then this method would work well for that. The cool thing about this method is that it is just always available to you by using the edit frame grips within the viewport, you don't have to fire up a command to do it.

Very precise and of course you can see the angle rotation in the Screen Bottom angle box!

And you can use it for a volume primitive object! ;)

Hi Niko,

I use this construction line script (a LOT) from Paul (AIRGLASS).

see this thread:

http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=1029.1


Allows me to setup a shape, or set of snap points with persistent construction lines. Although the standard 'on the fly' construction line is okay for quickies, I'm a lot more comfortable with this way of doing things.


Michael,

I hope you don't add anything that breaks this script :-)

Thanks guys!!
