I want to assign measurements and angles to a rectangle and then change it

vovich
Hi I need to assign measurements for a rectangle and angles (of course if I just draw the rectangle with the rectangle option, it'll have 90 degrees on all sides).
So then once having all the measurements set, is it possible that after moving any of the 4 points of the rectangle, I can see the changes to both measurements and angles?
Please share if my explanation is not clear.
Thank you!!

2 possibilities:

a): Select both the rectangle and the dimension. Then you can grab and pull one of the small blue squares to a different position.

b): Use Tools - Modify - Stretch. Define an area window around the desired points (first corner, second corner), then specify reference point, then target point.

The dimension has invisible definition points which have to be moved too, this way they are also caught.
