Rotating the cube object on its corner

[Robert Fuchs]

How do i rotate the cube object onto its corner.
Kind of like what the ENRON company logo was like.
i am using it for a sign but i don't know of any other way
to make a cube on its corner other than change the GDL
of the cube object so i can rotate it. i am supposed to have
this done by tomorrow morning and have spent a while to to figure out how to model it. this is my last hope. i may not get an answer in time for the meeting but i can use it later.
I would really appreciate any help.

Thanks

Street & Traffic library, AFAIR included in the Silver Bullet edition, has a "sculpture" that is exactly a cube on the corner.

Did not look at the cube script, but:

Open the 3D script, and at the top add:

RotX Xrotang
RotY Yrotang
RotZ Zrotang

Add the Xrotang, Yrotang and Zrotang parameters, of the type Angle, to the object.

To get the transformations clear, add DEL 3 at the end of the 3D script.

Comment the 2D script, and add PROJECT2 2, 270, 3.

This way you can rotate the cube (or anything else) as you like, AROUND THE ORIGIN.

HTH,

Thanks a lot! i had just enough time to model it with
the rest of the sign and put textures on it in artlantis.
i didn't use the statue b/c of the hole or that would
have been fine.

Thanks again.

attached is one of renderings.
