Hi
I am looking for a way to create a shelf component with
one edge be angled automatically when typing the angle value.
I know I have to create shelf component and subcomponents board and topangle
or botton angle but dont know how to put it to work
would help to see what you are working with or upload the project. But to start, make the edge you want angled a component and set the axis origin to center on where you want to pivot, then add a custom attribute called myAngle (or what ever you want to call it) then click in the settings for the attribute and make it a text box visible to user as a decimal. Then on the component, set the Rot(your axis) =myAngle
I d like to achieve one side to be angle like sample on the right

This is waht i am working on and the one on the right is how i d like to behave when angle changes.
Ideally i am lookinh to make a unit changing according to the angle right or left and maybe back to front.
I live in London and have been doing lot of loft Units with angled ceilings and d like to easy on my work by speeding the creating plans and usin it with OpenCutList.
I have a shelf component, with sub components of top, bottom, and end. the thickness and length
are variables. And tilt can be top, bottom or none for the end. The end face rotates on the Y axis 45 for top and -45 for bottom. the top and bottom stretch to fit. I multiply the end piece by 1.4 to and the thickness so it reaches the not stretched face (top or bottom) and since it pivots from the bottom Y axis, i move its position X the thickness amount when top is tilted.
Hi
Thank you for the answer .
I will have a look on it.
I was thinking and finally got solution for this . have a look
Thanks for Ideas.
glad you got it working. What did you end up doing to get the face and edges to follow the angles?
You created many components and chose only one of them. I wanted a more flexible approach, and it worked. Feel free to explore
