Is there no orientScale3pt?

Hi,
V5
I haave used Orient3Pt but after running it, the source object remains small and the target large, though no doubt points 1 and 2 are now aligned, just not same size.

How does one orient3Pt and have scaling occur ?

Cheers

Steve

Follow _Orient3Pt with _Scale

Scale option was added to Orient3Pt in Rhino 6. Points 1 and 2 are used for scaling.
Rhinoceros Help - Orient3Pt | Rhino 3-D modeling (mcneel.com)

Example:
Command: Orient3Pt
Select objects to orient
Select objects to orient. Press Enter when done
Reference point 1 ( Copy=No Scale=No ): Scale=Yes
Reference point 1 ( Copy=No Scale=Yes )
Reference point 2 ( Copy=No Scale=Yes )
Reference point 3 ( Copy=No Scale=Yes )
Target point 1 ( Copy=No Scale=Yes )
Target point 2 ( Copy=No Scale=Yes )
Target point 3 ( Copy=No Scale=Yes )

Hi, Thats good to know.
Just itching to get a quiet few days and get to open and test my rhino 5 into rhino8, watching like a hawk what happens to all my dims and text blocks etc.
Always having to do things to the clock, so as V8 might cause delays sorting things out, end up using what works. V5

V7 caused issues so now tread with caution, just want even 1 quiet day !

Hi Steve -

The answer is not going to change for any new time you bring this up. Rhino 6 and later is fundamentally different from Rhino 5 for anything related to annotations.
