For this kind of problem, i use SOLVESPACE witch is a free 2D and 3D solver.

Sure i know that!)
see my French site :) (that I must update! )

but it is a shame that a simple geometric construction don't make this simple thing!

Before a tricky plugin or anchor(s) function!

It's a delicious headache for insomniac! :)

Hi Tyler,

You're welcome, I'm glad that does what you needed! But yes if you have too many more constraints like "keep this angle", "this must be equal to that", "at a specific length" you can get into things where you can't really draw it by picking points or extending lines like you could in this case. For those things a solver is needed and Solvespace is a nice one for that.

I do still hope to be able to add constraints into MoI eventually as well too.

- Michael
