Rotate Object with Unknown Angle
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2013 7:41 pm
I need to rotate an object to meet another object (essentially, close a gap). I don't know what the angle is to do this and there doesn't appear to be a manipulator to just drag it around.
I attached a little sample diagram to illustrate. I want to rotate A on the circled point to bring it around and be flush to B. The lines may or may not be the same length, so I can't use point to point. This diagram is greatly simplified, in the actual case the objects are much more complex, the circled point would be more in the middle and closing the gap would swing the top out and create a gap at the top.
Any suggestions? Thank you.
