_bm3        Precise Rotation command (Tools Menu)

Top 

 

This command allows you to enter a specific rotation about the origin with respect to the XYZ axes.  You must first select something to rotate --- vertices, faces, or the whole object.  Only the selection is rotated --- everything else remains static.

 

The Precise Rotation command invokes the following dialog box:

 

 

Degrees Rotation

Enter the precise number of degrees to rotate the selection, to as many decimal places that are required.

 

Rotation Sense

Choose clockwise or anticlockwise rotation.  The sense is specified looking down the chosen axis towards the origin.

 

Rotation Axis

Choose the X, Y or Z axis to rotate the selection about.

The selection remains current after the rotation is completed, allowing other rotations or movements to follow.
