Hi all, new on here so please forgive if there are easy ways of doing things.

Is there a way :

Want to draw a beam on plan which is say 5m long. It has a start level of 1.000m and an end level of 1.000m.

I would like to be able to enter an angle / gradient for this beam of say 10deg where the end level would then change accordingly to give the end level of 0.118m (and keep the 5m length on plan).  Then whenever I stretched or moved the beam, it would always keep the 10deg angle.

Im sure there is a way to do this, but being new, I need some help please.

Thank you

Just select the beam and rotate it 10 degrees. Check both end levels and raise/lower it to the levesl you require. If it needs to be longer, draw section down its centre, go that section view and make it longer.
