I don't see putting the angle in the actual description line (due to space
constraints), but it would be possible to at least add it into the file for

Thanks, I'll compile a list of the parts I've had the need for some
angle to use and send it to you.

I'm probably stating the obvious here, but...  Please also include the
coordinates for the pivot as well as the angle.

Not obvious to me.  Clarify what you mean a little.

You may now freely deduce how many times I've burned myself on this simple
concept!  :-,

Deduction takes brain cells.  Why not just amuse us with an anecdote?

(...) Okay. In order to pivot a piece, you need two pieces of information: the *angle* of rotation, and the *axis* of rotation. Given one, it's a little work to figure out the other. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 15-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
