Hi,

I need to construct a typical rooftop for a school exercise, but I don't how to construct planes with a certain angle to the "x-work-plane" in the Mac version of Rhino.
I want to use the RECTANGULAR PLANE (3 points) tool to draw the plane along a line. However, the plane should be inclined with a certain angle, mostly 45 or 30 degrees.
How do I tell Rhino which angle it should use, after (or before) entering the dimension of the rectangular plane?
In the Windows version, you can use "^" to indicate that you want to use a certain angle for a plane, but that doesn't work in the Mac version. It simply returns "unknown command".
Using "°" or "d" after a numeric value doesn't work either.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.
