Hello, With the method below, I am able to find the tilt angle in X of a component relative to the SketchUp scene. mod = Sketchup.active_model sel = mod.selection sel.grep(Sketchup::ComponentInstance).each do |s| xaxis = s.transformation.xaxis angle_between = xaxis.angle_between(X_AXIS) a…

But if the instance is at the top model entities context, then you can use the world X_AXIS as a reference. angle_in_plane( sel[0].transformation.xaxis, X_AXIS ).radians.round
