Maintain slope and width

Is there any way to create a daylight with maintained slope and width, because daylight max width is changing slope to maintain width ?

Or any way to creat link to surface with max width ?

Hi @mohamed.awed2010, I had the same problem last year and decided to create a custom subassembly that performs that action. I have attached it if you want to use it. It works with a target parameter for the width, and if it cannot find the target, the daylight points to the selected surface anyways.

I hope it helps you. Best regards!

Your baseline would have to mirror  all the relative vertical undulations of your EG surface to maintain a constant daylight slope constraint coupled with a constant daylight width constraint..can you rethink/rephrase the goal perhaps?

Agreed or a Retaining Wall as a target, that adjust accordingly. It doesn't have a solution short of the true mirror
