    Question Reference line?

    Hello everyone,
    I was trying out to create a 2 shutter window ,my intentention was showing openable shutters so i placed my reference line using intersection as my snap pt, for the 1st shutter it rotates well along the angle i specify, but now if i place another reference line for the other shutter it moves the origin of the ist reference line.
    Can we not have 2 reference lines in a family?
    Regards,
    Aliya

    You can have more than one.

    Are you align / locking the reference line(s) origin to both the face of the wall (or other reference plane) and the edge of the window (or other reference plane?

    Thanx Andrew,
    I was making a mistake by aligning the reference lines.

    If you only want open/closed it may be easier to place the shutter in both positions, then use visibility to turn on/off and make on not equal off so you can toggle one or the other automatically.
