Hi guys,

I am an old Mastercam V9 user converting to gibbs.

I have some training next week to get some more of the basics down. But in the mean time this is driving me nuts.

How do you rotate geometry and solids in 3D?

Basicaly I am trying to make the bottom view into the top veiw. Something that I am sure is just too easy and I am missing it.

In Mcam I could just change to the front view and rotate around 180°.

Thanks!
Andy

ahhhh, I found I can get the required results by mirroring the geo from the front view... ...

different but funtional.

what i usally do is create anthor cs, then flip the cs plane. then i rotate the solid and go back to the 1 cs.
