Method to close a triangle in LDCad:
  • Select one "end" pin, then the matching articulation pin, then the other articulation pin and finally the last "end" pin.
  • Right click -> selection info -> display the information panel and triangle angles.
  • Choose either the red or green lines configuration depending on your needs.
  • Click on the box with matching outline color to copy values in clipboard.
  • Now select first articulation pin (to define rotation center) and parts belonging to first triangle arm.
  • Press Ctlr R to enter manual rotation, and paste clipboard in angle value. Eliminate the second value, as we are working with the first arm. Accept.
  • Select second articulation pin (to define rotation center for the second arm) and parts belonging to second triangle arm.
  • Press Ctlr R to enter manual rotation, and paste clipboard in angle value. Eliminate the first value, as we are working with the second arm. Accept.
  • Get rid of extraneous "end" pin(s).
...done!
