On the Transform tab you can:

change default sizes of 3D model separately along the axes;
mirror the 3D model;
tilt the 3D model in the selected direction by the desired angle;
rotate the 3D model in the horizontal plane by the desired angle.
assign license plate placement points.

Default sizes

 

On the panel you can change sizes of the 3D model and the Height above the Ground, which are set by default when placing the 3D model on the layout. The sizes are set separately by coordinate axes.

 

Mirror

 

Mirror the 3D model in the horizontal plane. For example. the tool allows you to turn a left door into the right one.

 

Tilt

 

Tilt the model. You can select the direction and angle. An arbitrary angle can be typed by the keyboard.

 

Rotate

 

Rotate the 3D model in the horizontal plane. An arbitrary angle can be typed by the keyboard.

 

 

In order to correctly display 2D projections of the model in the Graphics window after using the Mirror, Tilt or Rotate tools, it is necessary to update the horizontal projection of the 3D model.

 

If the 3D Model is already used in the project, then its previous placements may become distorted after transformations. To avoid this make a copy of the model and transform the copy.
