/ANGLE

/ANGLE

/ANGLE, WN, THETA, Axis, KINCR
Rotates the display about an axis.

GRAPHICS: Views

WN

Window number (or ALL) to which command applies (defaults to 1).

THETA

Angle (degrees) for changing display orientation (positive, counterclockwise about specified axis).

Axis

Rotation axis: XS, YS, or ZS (default) for the screen axes; XM, YM, or ZM for the global Cartesian model axes. ZS is normal to the screen; all axes pass through the focus point.

KINCR

Cumulative rotation key:

0	—	Do not use cumulative successive rotations.
1	—	Use cumulative rotations. Rotations are relative to the previous rotation. View settings (/VIEW) are recalculated.

Notes

Default orientation is YS vertical. When the /XFRM command is set for rotation about two points, or for entities, the /ANGLE command is functional only for Axis = ZS or ZM and KINCR = 1.

This command is valid in any processor.
