Need Help

Hello everybody.
I'm looking for a plug-in that gives the angle between two selected plans.
I have already found such : ( plane_angle) but it seem not to work on the SU 7.THANKS

Hi,
I would go for some geometric construction via intersection with third plane and than measure it with protractor. At least that is, what I do when needed. Finding and using some plugins will be more time consuming, but more efficient if repeated. -
Hi,
Wait a minute (a day
).
The formula is quite simple.
I'll code it asap and post it here.EDIT: 15mn later...
Unzip it in your Plugins folder.
Select 2 faces, open the ruby console and type 'angleBetweenPlanes' This will output the 2 planes equations and the angle in radians and degrees.
Hope that helps,

Hello there.
Thanks so much for your quick response for my first post here.
here is more nuances for the situation of the angle requested between 2 plans:
(see attached screen shut)
the angle requsted here is "a" .
Dear Didier, your plug in works very good but gives the complete angle which is "b".
sure i can do 180 - b = a (or use the protractor) but it is repatative action and
using a plug in save lot of time. also if the angle is close to 90 degree i have to double check it by using the protractor (because it's hard to distinguish by eye).
generaly, it would be great for a plug in to distinguish between the requested angle (a , b , or c) . maybe i'm asking too much .the plane_angle.rb (by kaidu) gives a similar result by right clicking on a common edge of two connected plans.
Didier, thanks sooo much for all what you contribute .

Hi,
Maybe my dim_angle script will do the trick ?
-> Creates an angular dimension with arc and text in a group.

Dear Didier,
Thanks for this sweet plug-ins, never realized this until i need to put some angular measure on my drawing...
