So, I am trying to align 3D objects, but the tool does not seem to be working the way it is telling me to do things.
I first highlight the object to be moved/aligned.
Next, Pick Tool.
Then, using Snaps there are the points which correspond to TEMP1.jpg:
1. Pick (from) origin
2. Pick (from) X axis
3. Pick (from) Y axis
4. Pick (to) origin
5. Pick (to) X axis
6. Pick (to) Y axis
The object rotates all out of whack and does not align in any way, shape or form the way I told it to.
I tried to find a video of this tool being used, but was unsuccessfull.
I've attached 2 images. Temp1 is depicts the points in the order I chose them using the Align 3D tool. Temp2 (attached to the next post) is the result I get. This doesn't seem to be working right.
Attached file is Temp2, the result I get.
If you don't select the element first and use PT1 as the select point and origin does it help. In addition you possibly have PT5 and PT6 the wrong way around.
If this does not help may be you could post the file for review if not ( or at least a copy of the file with the elements in question )
here a short video, hth.
