I need to place a beam from end of one beam to the end of another. But as soon as I use snaps the beam is detached from the plane.
I set work plane to the top of one of the beams and while I place a new one on top of them without snap, everything works fine.
If I place it "at an angle", also without snap, it also sits perfectly on bottom beams.
But when I use end snap to snap it to ends of beams, it gets wonky.
This happens even if I first just place the beam and then drag it to end points. Once I snap it to the second end point I get the "Element will be detached from its associated plane" warning, and the beam ends up like in the screenshot.
Having 3D snap on or off make no difference.
I think this issue relates to the beams becoming multi-planar at a specific angle, as you can see from the image below going from corner to corner even without Snaps On I get the same warning message!
An alternative here could be to create a Beam System and set the direction as the angle required and then remove the Beam System afterwards
But edit length and you get the warning again so use the workaround - Cut > Paste Aligned Same Place
