Re: [NTG-context] Trouble constructing a drawer rail with MP

Hi Jairo! thank you so much, this is precisely what I need. Still I am wondering why this is not working starting at the Pkt[2] but working when starting from Pkt[1]. Kind regards Willi

Hi!

Do

p[102] := (origin--dir(194)*10mm) shifted Pkt[1];

and

p[103] := (origin--dir(166)*10mm) shifted Pkt[2];

do what you need?

I wanted to make a technical drawing. However the enclosed mwe does not give me the required results.

While the vector from point 1 is directing in the desired direction of 194 degrees, the second vector from point 2 does not as defined point in the direction of 166 degrees.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks for pointing me into the right direction :-)
