Creating Rotations

Rotation lets you rotate geometry about an axis.

  1. Click Yes.
  2. Set Three Points as the definition mode.
  3. Select three vertices of Pad as the three points required. The app calculates the rotation axis from these points: altogether they create a plane. The normal to that plane passing through the second vertex you selected is the rotation axis that will be used. The rotation angle is defined by the two vectors created by the three vertices (between vector Point2-Point1 and vector Point2-Point3):
  4. Click OK to create the rotated element.
