Reset nested groups axes

Hi guys,

I have a similar thread running, related to axes as well, in that case about negative scaling issues when used in other softwares.

In THIS thread its a little different, I searched the whole web up and down and tried several plugins, with no luck.. yet.

I have modeled many objects which need to be rotated upwards by 90° - and now Im left with lots of groups (no components for a specific reason) where the up-axis (z, blue)b is pointing forward.

I cant go through all of those objects to reset the axis manually.

I know about TTs axes tools plugin and I can use it very well later in this case to place the axes at the proper place - but this doesnt change / reset the axis orientation itself..

One way could be to rotate the objects to the right orientation and reset the axes based on the world's axis orientation or some plugin where I could choose from z-up, y-up, x-up or sth alike.

I used the trial version of su4u's axis plugin and I would buy it if it solves the issue, right now it did only change the top level axis orientation, leaving all the nested group's orientation untouched..

ANY IDEA??

Thanks a lot!
