Node Angle

Node Angle

Node angle measure computes the angle between vectors N1N2 and N1N3.

These are reported in model space (x,y), (y,z) and (z,x) planes as well as in 3D (x,y,z) space. Units are degrees.

Nodes/geometry points are screen-picked or otherwise selected as in 6.5.3 above, and may be in different models.

3D angle is editable and if edited will result into a movement of the third node picked for measure (N3). N3 will move to reach the 3D angle typed in, staying in the same N1N2N3 plan, distance N2N3 will stay the same.
