Maybe it is better if I describe what I was trying to do. I was attempting to take a 20ft pipe from the resource browser and set it with a lower elevation of 12ft and an upper elevation of 15ft at a 45? to the Y-axis. What I ended up doing was creating a 20ft cylinder, and rotating it 10? on the z-axis. I then used that to create a symbol, edited the 2D properties, and viola I have my new pipe at the angle I wanted. Converted it to a Lighting position and have lights hung off of it.

I am having some difficulty rotating a pipe along the Z plane. Everytime I use Rotate3D, and select Z axis (Both on the working plane and on the layer plane) it rotates my pipe on the X/Y axis. What I need to accomplish is a Vertical roation of 10? and a horizontal rotation of 45?. I can get the 45? angle, just not the 10?. Can anyone help? [EDIT] I just figured out how to create a symbol. That will make my life much easier...
