Hey everyone, today I'm going to show you how to rotate 3D objects in AutoCAD. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced user, it's always good to know different ways of manipulating objects in your designs. So let's get started!
First, make sure you're in a 3D workspace in AutoCAD. You can switch to a 3D workspace by selecting the '3D Modeling' workspace from the workspace switching menu. Once you're in the 3D workspace, you can start rotating your objects.
One way to rotate a 3D object is by using the '3D Rotate' command. You can find this command in the 'Home' tab under the 'Modify' panel. Select the object you want to rotate, then choose the '3D Rotate' command. You can then specify the base point of rotation and the angle by which you want to rotate the object.
Another way to rotate a 3D object is by using the 'Gizmo' tool. The Gizmo tool allows you to easily manipulate the position, orientation, and scale of 3D objects. Simply select the object, then click on the Gizmo tool to bring up the gizmo, and you can use the handles to rotate the object in any direction.
If you want to rotate multiple objects at the same time, you can use the '3D Rotate' command with a reference angle. This allows you to rotate multiple objects around a common base point by specifying an angle. It's a great time-saving technique for rotating multiple objects in your design.
And there you have it! Those are some easy ways to rotate 3D objects in AutoCAD. Remember to practice and experiment with different techniques to find what works best for your design projects. Thanks for watching and happy designing!
