[LDCad] Aligning parts using rotation scripts

[David Manley]

Another improvement is using current coordination system instead of the global one. To make script works for setups rotated in any way - just select a part, press "O" to get local coordination system, and continue with the script as usual.

Hi Milan,

thank you for your feedback and kind words.

In truth, requiring the user to explicitly set the axis of rotation as opposed to rotating around the appropriate axis for the current camera was a bit of laziness on my part. I imagine that I could use the LDCad API to work out the appropriate axis. However, making the axis user selectable meant it was less code/easier code for this initial release and thus I could release the code sooner. I'll add improved axis rotation to the To Do list for a subsequent release!

Regards,

David
