Profile Orientation
The Orientation Constraint command enables you to constrain the orientation of a line in a 2D profile or a 3D profile.
The Orientation Constraint can make a line horizontal (parallel to the X-axis of the Work Plane), vertical (parallel to the Y-axis of the Work Plane) or fix it at a specified angle.
After starting the command, from the selection list, select the type of the orientation required by selecting any one of the following from the Type drop-down list:

Once you have selected the type of orientation to constrain, select the entity the constraint must be applied to. The program immediately applies the constraints and adds one of the following identifiers:
|
In this case the Orientation Constraint is applied in reference to the Profile Reference System. The constraint can make the line parallel to any of the axis or the planes of the coordinate system. After starting the command, from the selection list, select the type of the orientation required by selecting from the Type drop-down list and then select the entity the constraint must be applied to. The program immediately applies the constraints and adds one of the identifiers, as shown in the image below.
