      Hello Sketch Up community,

      I have run into a problem while trying to write code to create an arc.

      I do not understand what one of the arguments that this function uses does.

      normal
      A Vector3d object representing normal for the arc.

      What is a normal and can somebody give me an example?

        The vector perpendicular to and pointing away from the front of the object's plane.

        See Wikipedia: Surface Normal
        from which comes this image:

        I'm not here much anymore.
