rotating by more than 1 degree


Recommended Posts

When i try to enter a value less than 1 degree in the rotation info, it always rounds it to at least 1 degree.

How can I enter .5 degrees?

If you could point me to tutorials for the following I would appreciate it...

How can I zero out the rotation of an object so that its at its original rotation from when it was created?

How can I rotate an object on its Z axis while looking at it from the front?

File > Document Settings > Units, here on the right you can change the rounding precision for angles.

You can zero the rotation of most objects in the Object info palette, the field for "Rotation", if it does not have this field, there is no way that I know of to return it to 0 other than manually rotating it.

To rotate it about its Z axis, you can use Modify > Rotate > Rotate 3D, where you can specify the center of the rotation and the axis of rotation.
