You can move, rotate, or tilt an object so that it
aligns with another object.
In the
following example, two pairs of points are used to align the piping
in 2D using the ALIGN
command. Endpoint object snaps align the pipes precisely.
In 3D, use
the 3DALIGN command to
specify up to three points to define the source plane followed by
up to three points to define the destination plane.
The first source point on an object, called the base point, is always moved to the first destination
point.
Specifying a second point for either the source or the
destination results in the selected objects being rotated.
A third point for either the source or the destination results
in further rotation of the selected objects.
TipWith 3D solid
models, it is recommended that you turn on dynamic UCS to speed the
selection of the destination plane.
