You can specify up to three pairs of points for alignment. The first set of source and destination points defines the base point for the alignment. The second pair defines the angle of rotation; the source object (points 1,3) is aligned with the destination object (2,4). A third pair rotates the source object again (3,5) so that the source object aligns with the destination object (4,6).
