3dworks Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 apparently i accidentally rotated the coordinate system widget (not sure how it is called) when editing in scene a component. all derived components also have that twist. in the scene the component looks obviously right, but when opening it in a separate window for editing it is rotated in all three axes - which makes editing a bit difficult. is there a way to 'normalize' the component again? what i mean, compensate the coordinate system differences so that all axes are reset but the compopnent remains oriented in the scene as it is. any tips would be welcome. markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Hi Markus, We are not sure if we understand, but if you click on your Component with the Edit Object Axis tool, and Reset it to the Plane Axes, does that do what you want? If not, can you send us a simple file that shows the issue so we can help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3dworks Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 not sure what you mean, this is not working as supposed for me. maybe i'm missing something? screenshots with axis tool active are in component edit mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Markus, We don't know what you have or what you have done. If you refer to paragraph 2 of our post above: If not, can you send us a simple file that shows the issue so we can help? Then we may be able to better understand and help.

3dworks Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 i'm under deadline stress now, but tomorrow i can reduce the scene to just that component and send it up here ;-) thank you for trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
