Set pattern angle by element

Is there a way to set pattern angle by selecting an element or by 2 points.

  • There is a very simple way to do this...

    workflow:

    - Activate hatch/cross hatch/pattern tool

    - identify the object by giving a datapoint

    - Now place the pointer on the initiate point and give <Ctrl>Tentative (or O(rigin) with the focus in the AccuDraw dialog)

    - Rotate the AccuDraw compass by RQ, RA or RE aligned with the element. The PA will be set from AccuyDraws X-(red)axis.

    - Accept hatch/cross hatch/pattern by a DataPoint at the initiate location.

    Hope this will be of any help.

    For a CR i would like the Accudraw compass automatically placed at the selected point, so you should see under witch Axis the pattern angle is placed.
