Quick Reference

To rotate a 3D object around an axis

1. Click Modify menu 3D OperationsRotate 3D.
2. Select the object to rotate (1).
3. Specify the start point and endpoint of the axis about which the objects are to be rotated (2 and 3).

   The positive axis direction is from the start point to the end point, and the rotation follows the right-hand rule (see Understand the User Coordinate System in 3D).

4. Specify the angle of rotation.
