Rotating item in library.

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 16:11:33 GMT

Hey, i am currently using ArchiCAD 12. I am using a Phillipe Starck bar tool in my design and as it is not in my library i am creating it.
At the moment i'm using the Elbow pipe in basic shapes. I was wondering if anyone knows how to get a different start point for the elbow as the point always starts at 90 degrees.

I moved the y axis to make it stand vertical but now i need to move it round into a different position.

My Angle of Bending is at 245
Y Axis 90

Any help would be appreciated.

Kawsome:

If you can post an image of what you are trying to achieve, then you may get some different approaches to the solution (they may or may not include using the Elbow object).

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

These settings seem close. Note: the object preview is set to elevation.
