Rotation axes

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi all!

Why is not possible to change rotation axis? Why can I rotate object in all axes (x,y,z) without transfer it to the morf? This is really big disadvantage compare to Autocad.

Thank you

ArchiCAD works with a system of building objects that have defined properties. For all things that fall outside these categories, there's the morph tool, which you can freely do just about anything. There's also the option to convert objects made by other tools into morphs.

There is not much you can't do with the rail tool.
I created a profile that was horizontal, so on the sections of the roof that are angled I had to set the angle of the segment so it was 90° to the roof slope.
I have left the railing node posts on in this image - obviously you would change them to 'invisible'.
