Rotate Image Help Needed in PlasmaCAM

Post by HeritageSignCo »

Hi,

I am having trouble rotating the California Outline so that the top of the image is straight and lines up with the top of the table. If someone could assist me with this and possibly give me a tip on how to do it myself I would greatly appreciate it. The tree and the heart are fine. I just need to rotate the California outline. I'm using PlasmaCAM vs. 2.12 if that helps.

Thanks,
Erin

To add, I can only get it to rotate in 90 degree angles, not partial rotations.

Make sure your snap options are turned off first. You should be able to manually rotate the design by using the rotate function from the drop down menus. Click the base point from which to rotate from, then a pick point to the far side. After that it should be as simple as dragging it with the mouse.

If your snaps are turned on, the software automatically goes to the closest node point etc... that's been selected under the snaps menu.
