Summary
This command is used to rotate selected objects in the workspace, counter-clockwise, or clockwise, and by a specified angle of rotation.
Access
This command can be accessed from the PCB Editor and PCB Library Editor, when configured in 2D Layout Mode, by choosing the Edit » Move » Rotate Selection command, from the main menus.
The current viewing mode for the PCB document (or PCB Library document) can be changed using the corresponding commands from the main View menu. To switch to 2D Layout Mode, use the command of the same name, or use the 2 keyboard shortcut.
Use
Firstly, ensure that only the objects you wish to rotate are selected in the main design workspace.
After launching the command, the Rotation Angle (Degrees) dialog will appear. Enter the required angle of rotation, from 0.001° to 360.00°. Enter a positive value for counter-clockwise rotation, or a negative value for clockwise rotation. Click OK to close the dialog, then position the cursor and click to define the reference point for rotation. The selected objects will be rotated about the reference point by the entered angle.
Tips
- The Undo command can be used to restore the rotated selection.
