[LE...] Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Hello Does anyone know how to orient CAD model's scan path in Strategy after copying it from another Identical CAD model. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ri...] Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Make a new Alignment inside of Resources - Utilities - Alignment. Set the X,Z origins to the center of that plane (looks like there in an ID in the center of it you can use). Copy/Paste that alignment - Go into Special - Rotate - Space Axis should be Y - enter the value you need it to rotate by. Go to the Plane - change the Alignment from Base Alignment to Alignment1 - then click on Keep Position and set it to Alignment2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LE...] Posted 6 hours ago Author Share Posted 6 hours ago Hello Richard Thank you for your reply. In your last sentence : "Go to the Plane" which plane are you referring to. Also do I need to open each feature and do the KEEP POSITION or is there a way to rotate the whole program 90 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ri...] Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Please sign in to view this username. The Plane I am referring to is the one that you have shown "Back Plane-Large arc only". Do you need to rotate the model or the actual features? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LE...] Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago Hi.I need to rotate the model because now I am mounting the part in New orientation ( 90 degrees CCW when view from -Y side) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ri...] Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Then you need to perform this in CAD - Modification - CAD Model Transformation. Rotate about the Y either 90 or -90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LE...] Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago I did that when I opened the new CAD model but then all the Features and therr strategies remain in previous orientation. Looks like I'll have to open each feature and do "KEEP POSITION" and then select New Alignment (Which is 90Degreees CCW) and then once the strategies rotate then select original Base Alignment from the drop down Menue.

[Ma...] Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago You can just change Start angle on feature - that will rotate strategy also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Ri...] Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago That won't work on Planes because Planes are not centered - there are in a corner of a square/rectangle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
