Hi
I'm working on a couple of LDraw parts, and need know a way to calculate a
rotation matrix that corresponds to a quad (triangle), so that I can place a 1-4
edge.dat on it at the correct angle:
Can anyone tell me how to do it? I can't see that LCADCalc can do it...

Here's the quad  on one of the parts btw.

4 16 -24 4 -16 -24 20 -46 -36 20 -10 -36 4 20

Cheers NB

Uhm, it's the rotation VECTOR I need... The rotation matrix would just screw up the dimensions of the primitive. So does anyone have a program or formula that can give me the rotation vector of a triangle? -NB (19 years ago, 27-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
