ANSYS 13 Workbench, change default coordinate system

ANSYS 13 Workbench, change default coordinate system

ANSYS 13 Workbench, change default coordinate system

(OP)
In ANSYS 13 Workbench the default vertical up axis is Y. Is there away  to change it to Z? The reason for asking is that I use the num keys to rotate the model. And because I use Z as vertical up in my modelling the num keys don't work as intuitive as they would if Y was vertical up.

I.e. my question is rather is there a checkbox for Z as vertical up rather than how do I rotate...

Best regards

RE: ANSYS 13 Workbench, change default coordinate system

would re-mapping the keys work as well?
i believe you can set shortcut keys in the workbench options.
