re-orientate part to plane
(OP)
I have made a part in X-Z plane, I need to re-orientate the part into XY-plane. How can I do that?

RE: re-orientate part to plane
there is no direct function available to do that for a whole
part. When the part is a simple one just start over.
You may, however, experiment with the 'Modify' commands
'rotate' and 'move' by specifying 'Body' instead of face.
I can give no general guideline on 'how to' because it
depends on the overall shape of the part which might require
some auxillary sketches to get the desired result.
But why would you have to do that?

hmm, then you could try this as well:
- open a new .par and define a coordinate system using either
offset or rotation or both
- insert the part into this by using the coordinate sytem just
defined
