(default), an angle. It is similar to the ROTATE command except that it defines an axis
instead of a point.
The command starts by displaying the current values of the ANGDIR and ANGBASE
variables and prompts for the object's selection. The ANGDIR variable states the
positive direction for measuring angles, such as counterclockwise or clockwise. The
ANGBASE variable indicates the 0 base angle for defining absolute angles.
Command: ROTATE3D
Current positive angle:
ANGDIR=counterclockwise ANGBASE=0
Select objects: Selection
By default, we specify the axis of rotation with the help of two points:
Specify first point on axis or define axis by
[Object/Last/View/Xaxis/Yaxis/Zaxis/2points]:
Point
Specify second point on axis: Point
The next step is to specify the relative angle, which is in the positive direction defined
by the ANGDIR variable:
Specify rotation angle or [Reference]: Angle
