Hello! I am looking to perform a rotation around a pivot (the angle of a rectangle) and bring another point along the opposite edge to intersect a specific point chosen on another object. Not sure if I’m explaining the problem well… I’m attaching an image to illustrate my request in the hope of finding a solution. It may not be a SketchUp feature but a mathematical tracing trick?
Use the Arc or the Pie tool to find the point on the object you are rotating that will correspond to the point on the other side of the diagonal. Here I’ve place the diagonal over the near side. Once the thing is rotated into place you can edit the diagonal, trace the sides and use Push/Pull to remove the waste.
I am delighted with your help! Thank you very much for that!
