Transforming Elements from an Axis to Another

You can transform geometry positioned according to a given axis system into a new axis system. The geometry is duplicated and positioned according to the new axis system. One or more elements can be transformed at a time, using the standard multi-selection capabilities.

Before you begin: Create a 3D shape containing geometric elements.
