      Hello everyone,

      I'm working on my model and came across this situation:

      I would like Segment R (starting from the Point A and ending on the Point P) to follow the curve in Z plane (Curve H).
      So it would tilt down and follow the curve. Any ideas?

        To make the R segment follow a curve in the Z plane, you can use the Follow Me tool in SketchUp. Here's how:

        Draw a line from point A to point P to create segment R.
        Draw a curve in the Z plane (curve H) that the R segment should follow.
        Use the Follow Me tool by selecting the R segment and clicking the Follow Me button in the toolbar.
        Click on the H curve so that the R segment follows the curve.
        Once the R segment follows the curve, use the Face Intersect tool to create a clear intersection between the R segment and the curve.
        Using the Follow Me tool, you can make the R segment follow any path or curve in the Z plane.
