  • rotate a vector and points

    hello, how can I rotate vectors and points around a line with a given angle in FS? (to move them by the angle given) as opTransform only accepts bodies....

  • Is there a way to rotate around an axis without having to draw something or need an edge on a part

    It's annoying having to draw a sketch with a line or circle for the sole use of defining a rotation point. Is there a way to rotate an object around a standard axis. And if not, why not? It would be nice to use the transform rotation tool and use a view cube edge to rotate the object from that standard axis from the origin…

  • Transform Tool - rotation axis other than entity?

    I import a screw from McMaster-Carr into the Parts Studio and would like to rotate the part. So I... * Select the Transform tool * Choose the Part for the Entity * Choose Rotate as the transform type * Choose the axis for the rotation using a part entity * Enter the rotation angle desired I want to rotate the part about…

  • Help rotating text in FeatureScript

    Perhaps I'm on the wrong path, or not... Ive created a featurescript to make an array of holes. I want to add labels (text) to the holes but I cant seem to figure the best way to rotate the text so it is aligned to the holes. The following FS is my work in progress:…

  • Fastened Mate Connector (45 Degree Rotation)

    I have modeled a corner cabinet and trying to use a fastened mate connector to place it in an assembly. The corner cabinet would need to be rotated 45 degrees here, to be able to fit inside the corner, but it only allows me to rotate 90 degrees? Any pointers as to what I can do here? I can't link to the document, cause…

  • Revolve around Document or Object Access ?

    I'm trying to rotate a portion of a sketch. When using the rotate tool, it asks me what axis i want to rotate around. I really want to rotate around the objects own center point Z axis and/or the origin Z axis (as the object is aligned to the origin). If I'm understanding this correctly, I need a sketch line or part line…

  • How do I rotate part so a face match top plane?

    My part has flat but inclined face. I am preparing that part for 3d printing and need to rotate the part so that the face become parallel to top plane. Rotate by angle does not work for me as the angle is pretty hard to calculate. I tried mate connectors, but I could not define a mate connector on a plane. So what would be…
