Hrm. Okay, I can make four angled construction lines, however there are only three intersections. How do I define a point to snap to at the fourth intersection? Slowly .... I'm figuring out how to use this program. It begs for a tutorial. If I have something selected, and then choose Modify/Delete, shouldn't that delete the selected things? Shouldn't the scroll wheel zoom in and out on the thing you're pointing at? If I select four points and the four segments connecting them, and then Edit/Copy, shouldn't Edit/Paste insert four points and segments? I'm only getting one point inserted. > The use of construction lines is how PythonCAD is designed to create > drawings. Indeed! They're practically a requirement. > No, I haven't.

Maybe better for me to add the features I want within PythonCAD .... like rotate. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com | When immigration is Crynwr sells support for free software | PGPok | outlawed, only criminals 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-323-1241 | will immigrate.
