3D rotation of an Object Hi, I am drawing an attic with a pitched roof. I have designed the roof in SweetHome and saved it as object. I then import it as object (furniture import) in the main draw of the attic and in included in the library in the category of miscellaneous objects. Issue is that I need to rotate now the roof in 3D in order to align it to the below sloping walls . I need to use all 3 axis or rotation directly on the CAD. Below the image: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gOTT0DztEt85...cTX0zHBZ/view?usp=sharing Is it possible ? thanks ! |

Re: 3D rotation of an Object You can’t rotate an object around 3 axes in Sweet Home 3D, except in the 2nd step of the import wizard. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: 3D rotation of an Object Is it possible ? Yes. Select the object after insert in plan; Right click->modify furniture->set the rotation angle on 3 axis. Will don't work until You selected again after insertion. ---------------------------------------- A computer program does what you tell it to do, not what you want it to do.

Re: 3D rotation of an Object Yes,thanks, i tried but it is pretty dufficult to pick the right angle, rotation 3d, and furthermore once i change the angle it goes in totaly wrong position. Maybe i have to select it again as you suggest... Would the below help to draw the roof of my attic ? http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,6600_offset,0 |

Re: 3D rotation of an Object For simple roofs could help but for some little more complex don't. Especially if you want to insert some windows or an unregulated shape of roof. Is not quite a simple task but with perseverance You will succeed. Sometime You need to elevate more than necessary to be able to rotate, then set the correct elevation and orientation. ---------------------------------------- A computer program does what you tell it to do, not what you want it to do.

Re: 3D rotation of an Object Do it like Puybaret wrote: reimport your roof and turn it to the position you need in the 2nd step of the import wizard. ---------------------------------------- Pascal SH3D 6.6 / Ubuntu 22.04 (Mainline-Kernel) / Radeon RX580 / Ryzen 7 5800x |
