I have some parts in an assembly (Flanges/pipe elbows, etc). Is there a way to rotate them to a "snapped" position using 'free drag' or 'about entity'?
The problem I'm having, for example, trying to rotate something 90 deg. It takes me forever to get it to rotate like I want using 'By delta x, y and z' even though I'm referencing the delta x, y, and z, coordinate icon (UCS), it still rotates the wrong direction (I'm sure it's doing exactly what I ask, and I'm simply inputing the wrong info).
Not sure if this makes since..
Chris,
Right click on your component & select "Move with Triad", you can then select one of the rotation rings & drag it to which orientation you like using the angular display that appears.
The option may not be visible to begin with so click on the arrow at the bottom of menu to display more options or select Customise Menu & tick the option to make it appear permanently.
