Rotating Segments

You can rotate segments on bundles.

Restrictions and Limitations

By default, these actions rotate bundles in degree increments (from 1 - 90), specified by the RotationAngleRoundingValue parameter you have configured in Design Settings.

You can achieve a finer level of precision (less than one degree) by disabling Polar Mode () and Grid Snap () on the Status Bar.

Prerequisites

• A bundle that contains at least two segments is displayed.

Procedure
