Why is there an Archicad Help menu? It really could do with a major overhaul. The only way to get any real info on how to do something is to ask one of my fellow workers.
I have been trying to find info about transparency for images when in plan (as an overlay) I cannot find anything. Type in transparency or images and there is not much there.
Right click over the word transparency and you get.... (have a look at the attachment).
Utterly pointless.

As far as I know there is no elegant way to do this but the way I do it is to decide on the point of rotation, select the object, chose rotate command, pick the point of rotation and then another point or edge that is parallel to your starting angle. Next hit the 'a' key and change the angle in the box to the desired number. If it is 10deg it is only a matter of inserting your cursor and changing 1 number. Hit the enter key and your done.
For example: last week I wanted to rotate an object 10 degrees relative to its current position. There must be an easy way to do this - but help was simply no help.
Anyone happen to know the answer?

I agree.
Occasionally - when I can't work out how to do something, I look up 'HELP', find out only what I already knew, and then resort to this site.

Thanks, Guys.
But why doesn't 'HELP' tell you that? Seems like pretty basic stuff to me.
