Sets options for rotating equipment in the model. You cannot rotate equipment along an axis that is constrained by predefined positioning relationships, and you cannot rotate equipment that is fully constrained. For example, you cannot rotate a pump that is mated to a horizontal reference plane and aligned with other pumps on either side, because in order to perform the rotation, one or more of these relationships is broken.
Rotation Point
Defines the origin point for the rotation of a piece of equipment. This point serves as a fixed anchor during the rotation.
Axes
Sets the geometrical axes to reference during the rotate operation. You can choose from the equipment's local coordinate system, the global coordinate system for the entire model, or any grid systems defined for the model.
Reference on Part
Instructs the system to use the selected part face or edge as the rotation reference, and selects the equipment's local coordinate system for the rotation of the part.
Reference on Model
Defines a reference in the model, and selects the global coordinate system for the rotation of the part.
Angle
Specifies the angle of rotation for the equipment. This option also dynamically displays the current angle during manual rotation.
Step
Defines an incremental value to use when rotating equipment. When you rotate equipment manually, the equipment only rotates to an angle equal to some multiple of the step value.
Close
Exits the command.
