Description

This tool rotates the selected objects. The user is asked for the rotation center, the start angle and the rotation angle.

Usage

  • Picking a point on an empty area of the 3d view, or on an existing object.
  • Pressing CTRL will snap your point to availible snap locations.
  • Pressing SHIFT will constrain you vertically or horizontally in relation to the rotation center.
  • Pressing ESCAPE will cancel the operation.
  • Enter numbers to manually insert a coordinate.
  • C switches the copy mode on/off. With Copy on, new objects will be created instead of rotating existing objects.
  • Pressing ALT will make a copy, even if the Copy check button is off.
