Hello,

We are using the Rotation icon in Part Design, and noticed that there is an option to rotate using an Axis and Two Elements (CATIA V5R16).

Question: What exactly does this do? I know choosing the axis gets you the axis of rotation, but does it line up the two elements? We don't know what it actually does.

Thank you,

Joseph
 
The help page provides a good explanation of all the options in Rotation.

Click the Rotation icon, and then F1
 
Thank you jackk

By mistake I was looking at the R14 documentation. Anyways, I looked at the R16 documentation and found the explanation.

thanks again,

Joseph
