Rotation different between box and triangle
Why do boxes and triangles rotated about the X axis act differently?

When a box is shaped as a board with 1" width, 6" height and 48" depth, it's depth is along the Y axis. It will rotate about the X axis as expected. The dimensions make a board that would be flat against a vertical wall that is along the Y axis.

When a triangle is shaped as a board with 6" width, 6" height and 1" depth, it's width is in the Y axis. It will rotate about the Y axis when a value is inserted in the X axis of the modify furniture menu. The dimensions make a triangle that would be flat against a vertical wall that is along the Y axis.
