I have 2 objects, and I want to rotate the one object so that it has its face perpendicular to another objects face. I can't figure out how to do this. Anyone know?
Thanks,

Ok I see how rotating the object changes how the align work due to the orientation of the global axes. But lets say I am working on various parts and can't rotate the object to match what sketchup thinks is up, can I change the model's axis? I have tried changing axis all different ways, but to no avail. Is the blue axis positive always the same direction?

Ok here is a contrived example. Not everything you build has an up and down when you start to build, but take this house for example. If you click on front of house, and do align view, it will show you house upside down. Is there a way to fix this so it shows up right side up after the part is already made?

I like to use align view, but for some components align view make object upside down. Is there anyway to tell sketchup which way to really align view? Or is it simply based on how you made component in the first place? I have tried changing axes, but didn't seem to do anything different.

I am need a style so I can print out parts in layout so I can use them for woodworking templates, including some very detail parts that will be cut out by hand. I have been using the straight 1px style, but I would like thinner lines such as in Illustrator I can print out lines that are .1pt wide. Also some times using the straight lines style some lines are thicker than others. Is there just a plain style I can use?

If I have a shape that I do push/pull if I want to make it 2d again it erases shape. Is there a free plugin that does this?
