1. Save the slab as Object and edit the 3D Script: ....http://www.archicadwiki.com/RotateObjectInSpace

2. Save the slab as Object and use "ROTATOR.GSM" to rotate it

Try using OBJECTiVE. Referring to the attached image, you can tilt your tabletop in 2 simple steps:
  • 1. Select the slab and click the menu OBJECTiVE > Component > New Profile. Enter a name for the object, and check the options to place the profile and delete the origin item.

    2. With the new object selected, click the menu OBJECTiVE > Tools > Rotate, click to define the rotation axis, and enter the rotation angle.

    3. The object also provides rotation parameters, so you can freely flip it up or down.
