Rotating Componants and Pro8
-
Can someone telling me or show me how to rotate a componant to match a wall angle.
I know in cad you can match an angle. Also, I'm working in pro7, but with all the componants in 3d warehouse that are pro8, is there a way that I can still download them.Thanks,

I didn't know there was a difference in the warehouse of files in 8Pro. Did you try downloading and using them? I don't think there is any difference in file type.
Rotate tool like other tools uses snaps and inferences, So you can place one corner of your component on the bottom edge of wall (or on a guideline parallel to the wall) and use that corner as your center of rotation. Then rotate, first snapping to the other point in the component you want against the wall. and rotate that to wall edge.
Most models and walls are aligned orthogonally so just doing 90 deg rotations is required.
Further, there appears to be 'parallel to edge" inference for rotation, but it does not always give the correct rotation for me, so IDK what that's about
