      No, I need to drop 2x4's along a terrain path, but they need to be straight up and not perpendicular to face.

      If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

        I'm starting to wonder if indeed there is such a ruby, I'm sure there was one, but I'm getting old and cannot remember.
        It should work like 'drop at intersection' but stay vertical.

            Like this, right? That's the plugin I linked to above....shows up as 'Drop at Intersection' in right-click menu after selecting components...

                                  Thanks guys, After every new version of SU comes out I load ruby's as I need them and finding them can be difficult if you are an idiot like me and deleted SU 7 and all its files including ruby folder.

                                        One issue...

                                        It drops right, but if you make a mistake and try to use undo, it undoes one at a tome, now if you have 200 poles it's a problem.

                                            If they are all one component then they do not follow the terrain, they need to be seperate components for the drop to work.
