Description

Generates strings between a 3D point and any points on a string which produce a predesignated angle.

How to Use

  1. Run the command. You will be prompted to "Select first point for graded string".

  2. Select the point, then you will be asked to "Select string for connection".

  3. Select the string - you will be prompted to define the angle for the connection.

  4. Choose an angle, then <OK>. New strings are generated from the starting point to any point along the other string (which may be a segment or a vertex), which matches the supplied gradient.

The units and up/down convention for this can be modified with the set-gradient-convention command.
