Creating Oriented Rectangles

Oriented Rectangle lets you create a rectangle in the direction of your choice by defining three extremity points of the rectangle.

  1. In the H and V boxes of the Tools Palette, specify the coordinates for the first corner and press Enter.
  2. Specify the values for the second corner.
    1. In the W box, specify the required length.
    2. In the A box, specify the required angle value.
    3. Press Enter.
  3. In the Height box of the Tools Palette, enter the height for the third corner and press Enter.

The oriented rectangle and its corresponding constraints are created.
