How to rotate objects in Catia v5


Within this video various rotation aspects are discussed starting with sketches, parts, imagine & shape elements as well as imported 3D scans.

Step 1: Rotating each element type
During this video we start with the basics regarding the view port rotation.
Afterwards we discuss aspects regarding rotating sketching elements as well as parts using the Rotation feature.
Using the 3D Compass represents the best option that can enable rotation, this can also be used to add direct absolute values as well as incremental rotations.
At the end of this video we discusses aspects regarding the rotation of Imagine & Shape elements as well as 3D scans within Digitized shape editor.

Step 2: 2D rotations and 3D rotation of whole assemblies
I decided to make a follow-up video that will be added in Step 2.
This will address 2D rotations as well as 3D rotation of whole assemblies.
The case study makes use of the GoPro Karma drone created by Hans van Vlijmen
