      Let's say I have an arc.. I want to rotate that arc. to a certain rotational degree. I don't want the part (or line - arc line) to stick and I don't want to delete lines that are in the way of the actual place where it can be moved after Offset (Indicating) Axis Angle Rotation command is used.

      So the object moves at a clicked point on the object co-instantly with another point that is around a bunch of geometry that I want locked.. I know I could group and copy and paste into area..

      I'd like this because the co-instant ability so how would be crucial to opening the flood gates for other commands. Maybe Ruby writing a procedure with the ability in determining the point and other line geometry, as in faces up to edges surrounding that point to make the second co-instant angle indication might work.

      On-set procedures (normally indicating drawing) is the greatest though.. Maybe some kind of command for locking lines as not to get in the way would be good for now as well. And I'll just go ahead and make this another group.. The logic here that i don't want is making a group as a last resort when creating a new part with a tight class of fit.

      Thank you SU Friend and Moderator!!

      Upon revised procedures.. I've managed to copy needed indication lines at a necessary angle from the opposite end that I've managed to be out of the way.. SU is so simple sometimes..
      Well, as the saying goes, you are less likely to fall off if starting to climb a ladder at the bottom. 😉
