Align face to endpoint script ?
-
How about a script that will align a face perpendicular to the end point of a line segment that may be off axis in 3d?
This would be a big help when using the follow-me fcn for this condition.
A work around is to set the axis of the end segment and then using Didier's align_tool align/copy the face to the end point.
As his scripts are encrypted is there anyone on the inside that could add this option to this really super script.
Not my expertise at all but the code lock out does eliminate an open solution for the experts here to take a shot at.
Also the align_tool seems to add two options to the context menu ?? for align and align group/component.
True ?? no??
Just a thought for the day.!
Anyone?

My ExtrudeAlongPath, TubeAlongPath and PipeAlongPath scripts all align a face perpendicularly to the start of the selected path... So it shouldn't be difficult (for someone) to pinch the appropriate bits and make your tool... Also Mirror.rb also has methods for copying faces etc and moving them about selected lines/planes etc so all in the bits exist already...

Hi TIG
Your extrude along a path is my bread and butter script for plan development.
The core of a copy plan system and tut that I am in process on as we speak.
An align_face script would be appreciated by all I am sure and thanks for the get-back.
