Orient a group from one plane to another?
-
I don't have a full grasp of transformations. Yet. I do seem to get my way around - but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right.
If you have a group or component sitting oriented around ORIGIN in the ground. How would you transform it to make it sit on the plane of an arbitrary face?

Well, Thomas, it's rather quite easy if you just read the freakin' manual.
Geom::Transformation.new(origin, zaxis)Nothing to see here...

well instead of making this thread a total waste
can anyone tell me if there is a way, when working inside a component, to use that components axis for inferencing instead of the world axis. in most 3D progs you have a selection button (world, object, screen)... to tell the prog which axis you want to use. sorry this is an SU question not a ruby question. although it may be a script request too.

Not something you can make changes to existing tools. But when creating your own tool it should be possible.
