      It was made vertical but when I set i to glue to a plane it always lays itself horizontal.
      Why does this happen?
      Picture in the components window is also oriented the wrong way.

      Picture shows where I have set the axes, oriented correctly here.

      Thanks!

          I don't see any image but what you describe is indicative of incorrect axis orientation. Change the axis orientation so the red/green plane is parallel to the gluing face on the component.
