How to change the material orientation in ABAQUS???

(OP)
I am trying to make a model consisting of a tube being deformed to a triangle cross section. I wanned to have a homogeneous orientation, meaning that I wanned that the first material orientation (x) to be in a same direction for all the elements (and the same thing for the second material orientation (y)). Even I changed the material orientation in the part section but in the end the odb is still with a messed up orientation. can somebody help me please?



here is the orientation that I choose in the beginning:
