Rotate object?
Hello,

Question of a beginner:

How can I rotate a created object around the axis?

Is there a plugin for this?

thank you

Re: Rotate object?
I guess you meant "around an horizontal axis".
There's no direct way to do that yet, but you can circumvent this issue with this tip:
- select the object you want to rotate
- choose the 3D view > Export to OBJ format menu item, choose a file and when prompted select the option Export selection
- choose the Furniture > Import furniture menu item, select the exported file and at the second step of the Furniture import wizard, rotate the model like you want, possibly using the shift key for a degree by degree rotation. Finish the importation, et voilĂ !
