Hello all,
Does anyone have any ideas on how to stretch parallel diagonal lines and keep them symmetrical & parallel?
I'm trying to create some adjustable supports with tubular diagonal bracing. I will also need to clip the red and green lines to fit the corners of the red box.
Solved! Go to Solution.

That is a seemingly simple request but not easy to accomplish. In fact it is one of the rare things that I know can be accomplished with constraints but I do not know how to accomplish using dynamic parameters and actions. Unfortunately, constraints and dynamic parameters/actions do not play very well together and so, if this is part of a larger block, you might be relegated to using the more troublesome and less consistent constraints. See attached for a functional constraints version of the block.

...I should have said that I know how to accomplish it with dynamic parameters/actions, but need to use a wipeout, which often times is not desired... Let me know if you want to see that version.

Here's a slightly improved constraints version and below it is the dynamic parameters/actions version with wipeout.

Thanks again Libbya!
I was worried that the only way to accomplish this was with constraints - I was having trouble with those, but you got it to work! I am also going to take a closer look at this wipeout feature, I'm not familiar with it. Thanks for offering not one, but two solutions!
I have 14 different instances to apply this to, so I just have to figure out which one works for me.

Hi,
Is it possible to have only two variables C & D and
stretch brace accordingly no need for polar angle. Please find attached.
Thanks
