To Change the Structural Member Roll

Use this procedure to change the orientation of a structural member relative to its extruded axis by specifying a number of degrees to roll it. A positive value rolls the member counterclockwise when viewed from its end to its start.

  1. Select the structural member.
  2. Select the Roll grip, move it until the desired number of degrees is displayed, and click once; or enter a value, and press Enter.

    A positive value rolls the member about its axis in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from its end to its start.
