      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!

                        Sorry I am in total fog 😳
                        I believe that you must make another video more explicte πŸ˜’
                        (where are the axes of glue at the start and in which volumes...
                        I am waiting the Doh revelation πŸ˜„

                        As you can see these 2 components have at the start no special Glue plane between them
                        They are just aligned
                        After glue no changement... so...foggy mood 😳

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

                          make_comp.png

                          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’­ ❓

                                  hehe this was not implicite! πŸ’š
                                  Now I more understand! πŸ‘

                                  So next version must create the new Plane Glueing when any don't exist!
                                  and maybe also very useful πŸ˜‰

                                      Sorry - I'm still not understanding this. "rotate one a glue line"?

                                        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.

                                          Isn't that just selecting the components and using the rotate tool?
                                          I can't get a grip on what this "glue" is. πŸ˜•
