Introduction

This tutorial will step through the process of adding a rotation to a template with the template rotation plug-in.

The template rotation plug-in allows rotations to be added to parts created using the template designer.


Tutorial

Note

Before starting the tutorial, a part must be created. This tutorial will be using the part that was created in the Template Designer Tutorial. Please complete the Template Designer tutorial before proceeding.



Step 1

Once the part is complete, locate the rotation field next to the entry fields on the left side of the screen, as shown below. Since this part has only 2 bends, there will only be one rotation field available.

Step 2

Next, a rotation value will be applied to the part.

Enter "90" in the rotation field. This will add a rotation to the second bend on the part. See the image below.
