hello,

I have made an assembly in SolidWorks. Is it possible to rotate one of the parts (by say 15 degrees) about an axis defined by me?

No one else has this question

Do you need to rotate it by an exact angle? If not you can start the Rotate Component too, then in the drop down menu choose "About Entity" and select your axis. Then you can drag the part around the axis. I can't think of a way to get an exact angle.

Can you not use an Angle Mate?
