Inclined supports.

Do you know you to model inclined fixed supports ?
(I am thinking about having a 2D structure supported on a 45degree slide)

Thank you very much

simplest might be to orient the structure at 45 degrees and use normal constraints .. create a little function to return the transformed coordinates for the nodes and use those when creating the nodes or just use [expr ] in the nodes directly.
