Hi, All.  
I once created a topic about the rotation of adaptive components.

> Hi All, I’v got almost every techniques for dynamo and revit from you. I deeply appreciate it… and today, I brings 2 questions about AdaptiveComponent.by points I made this graph and I found 2 problems I made family like this but some families has rotated. I want to my families to be drawn unrotated… where is the problem? Should I make this family in other way? or there has some missing stuffs in graph? [T1002243E2A라이닝.rfa](https://forum.dynamobim.com/uploads/short-url/eD439VPhdYMbecRtZlEHscOiyDV.rfa) (388 KB) [Tunnel Structural F…](https://forum.dynamobim.com/uploads/short-url/5475xGF9UVfhMp64WRYVFaoX8hd.dyn)

I made family like this

 ![K-050](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/b/6/b6ce00b63eebf58ee76735ad190b343226583417.jpeg)

I created adaptive points and drawn a rectangle in the YZ plane of the each point.

 ![K-051](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/6/d/6d8175d85fdb3e081388d99aef5caee46dee961b.jpeg)

and created square box  
In this case, If I drag and move point,

 ![K-053](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/a/4/a4852f96090f8a0beb23224f40db027f1c27c9b7.jpeg)  
It rotates.

and maybe this is only solution for it…

So I made this.

 ![K-054](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/7/4/740f8bf0d99478cd0372620c3a8352a17f95bcf5.jpeg)

I made a point of a rectangle by creating an adaptive point, taking a reference point on it, and then moving that point. And repeat.  
Then I made a rectangle by connecting the line to the reference line.  
So I made this

 ![K-055](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/a/a/aa34d930b92ce0588db9a2f7ce78a0dbb0847a01.jpeg)

In this case, If I drag and move point,

 ![K-056](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/8/1/81dd7d3d4c41a4a2c63f2818b64bba3f3a4ec9a1.jpeg)

It doesn’t rotates.  
This is what I want to make.  
More precisely,

 ![K-059](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/4/8/48a586f2ad68f3e738f2e00d05eda7f96c422ed3.jpeg)

But what I have to make family has some complicate profile.

 ![K-057](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/c/0/c061f24bbef06ee216426b6189465b5dc72bd808.jpeg)

So I have to load the CAD file, place it, and draw the profile by Pick Line.

 ![K-058](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/e/a/ea54d0c214730f359eb454219494127e4bf01728.jpeg)

In this case, how can I connect profiles and reference points?  
How do I draw a profile so that it is linked to a reference point?

I can’t solve this problem in 2weeks…

You could try to place voids at the start and end of your component, and control the void with a angle parameter, bound to to a line or plane.

Or you place a 3 point on the reference point and control the angle between the “point planes”.
