        Yes, if you infer off an existing matching angle. If that's not present use the Protractor tool to create the guide you need.

        Fredo Tools also has MoveAlong and DrawAlong...

        ...which super charges the inferencing engine to do more than vanilla can.

            Its always best to learning the base tools before utilizing extensions. SU can do a lot without any extensions.

            Extensions exist to extend base abilites.
