          Added some pauses when reading the annotation text seemed to be a bit fast. Gee, I like these features.

            What do you use to make the videos with annotations?

              YouTube itself has these annotation tools. The video was simply captured with CamStudio but I did not edit anything in it.

                Ah cool. I'm about to produce the videos for Vertex Tools now. Never uploaded to YouTube before.

                  Let me know if I can help (although I myself am not a great YT'er either). Also, annotations/annotating can be shared so when you get to there, I can also help with doing that part.

                    Very useful. Saves the time of having to align things with the rotate tool when they're slightly off kilter.

                    Thanks!

                            As you can see these 2 components have at the start no special Glue plane between them
                            They are just aligned

                              The components must already be defined as Glue to components. If they don't have this property they won't be glued.

                              comp_browser.png

                              The tool doesn't turn components into GlueTo components - it just glue/unglues existing ones.

                                  It's a wee bit tricker to define an arbitrary axis that yields predictable result.

                                    I can't illustrate this, but I can try to explain it.
                                    You can rotate (using SU's native rotating tool) components on a specific glue line. Basically so that components are angled at something other than 90, 180, 270, 360 degrees. πŸ’­ ❓

                                      So next version must create the new Plane Glueing when any don't exist!

                                            You basicaly rotate the glue, and every component stuck together with the glue. Like making a group of those components, and then rotating the group.
