Parallelogram

Hallo maybe it is a good idea to add next to intersection an parallelogram tool.

it would save time to construct trouser back pockets, belt loops etc.

Idea select point A0#, A1# and A2#, result A3#

That does sound like a good idea. In the mean time you could use Point - Intersect Circles:

Makes no sense to add a tool that simply creates the 4th corner of a rectangle… there’s tools that can already do that. @Pneumarian suggested 1, here’s 2 others:

Point - On Perpendicular

Point - Length and Angle image

What makes more sense is a new Rectangle tool that has a Base point, Width, Length, and Angle attributes, and it creates 3 new points to form a rectangle at basepoint with a wdth and length rotated by n degrees.

OR better yet… we expand the idea further and make it a “Polygon” tool, where there’s also a Number of sides attribute where say we can enter a number from 3 to 8 to create Triangles, Rectangles, Pentagons, Hexagons, Septagons, and Octagons.

Expand it even further an add “Skew” attributes so that we can create a true “Parallelogram” or Rhombus.

For sure it can be done in multiple ways. It would be a time saving operation comparable with Midpoint on line.
