Hey there!
Can anybody tell me a way to flip a family object that is wrong aligned???
For instance a table that is aligned edgewise.
I need to rotate it so that its feet are on the ground and top view is actually the table surface and not a sideview of the table feet.
The rotation tool only rotates the object on its own axis for instance a 180° turn.
Should be so simple and yet it's pretty frustrating...

merci

Sounds like this other thread might be useful in this case:

couldn't find the "pick new" command but after switching from always vertical into work plane based I was able to rotate how I wanted. So thanks for helping out!
