Rotating objects in DesignBuilder is a straightforward process designed for efficiency.
To rotate an object or multiple objects within your DesignBuilder model, you follow a simple two-step procedure. This allows you to adjust the orientation of building elements, components, or other model entities precisely as needed for your design and analysis.
Here are the exact steps based on the standard method:
Steps to Rotate an Object
- First select the object(s) you wish to rotate. You can select a single object or use standard selection methods (like clicking with Shift or drawing a selection box) to select multiple objects simultaneously.
- Then click on the 'Rotate' tool located within the DesignBuilder interface, or alternatively, select 'Rotate' from the right-click menu that appears after selecting the object(s).
Once you activate the Rotate tool or command, DesignBuilder will typically prompt you to define the axis and angle of rotation, allowing you to orient the selected item(s) to the desired position.
Rotating Multiple Objects
As highlighted, if you want, you can rotate several objects at the same time. Simply make a multiple selection before initiating the rotation command using either the tool icon or the right-click menu option. This is particularly useful for adjusting the orientation of several similar components or entire sections of your model together.
This method provides flexibility in manipulating your 3D model geometry, ensuring accurate representation for subsequent energy simulation and analysis.
