Truss Family Enhancements - Automatic member coping

[SeanSpence]

I would also like to see a more atuomated way to cope the members, I know this isn't always needed but ineveitably the question comes up and users are frustrated it is a one off thing

regarding coping I have 3 ideas. see attached sketch

1. being able to fillet two items creates an equally divided line between them

2. using extend will cope to borders

3. being able to cope ends to a ref plane so that you could set the angle of the short side that might be at a different angle to the length side. Currently draws short side 90 deg to length side. One needs to be able to have this as something different like 30 deg if required.
