Rotate a flanged component

Use the Bolt Hole Alignment window to rotate a flanged component so that it aligns with the bolt hole spacing by default, which means using the number of bolt holes in the component to determine the default angle increments of rotation.

For example, in this case the flanged component has eight bolt holes, therefore the available default angle increments of rotation are constrained to 45 degrees.

To remove the constraint and rotate the component without aligning to the bolt holes, from the Bolt Hole Alignment window, click Rotate By Bolt Hole Angle Increments Only.

Click Rotate By Bolt Hole Angle Increments Only, then select the rotation angle which is no longer constrained by bolt hole alignment. A Question window is displayed:

Click Yes to rotate the connected flanged components to the angle.

Click No to close the Question window.

Or

Click Cancel to discard any inputs and close the Question window.
