Switch plane axes
When I import some 3D models, I get axes inverted, for example, Z is Y. How can I switch this for the whole drawing easily by telling BricsCAD that Y axe becomes the Z axe? I am used to ArchiCAD and Vectorworks, this operation is done quite easily by a simple click. But I can't manage to do it with BricsCAD.

Somehow I am also not very familiar with things like rotating in Brickscad.
I don't really get the workflow, timing and ergonomics of these Tools.I would need that for Exports like DAE,
but better as an Option to activate from an Export Dialog.
(as well as meshing conversion controls)But I think it is nearly similar than VW.
Select All > 3DRotate > X-Axis Option > from 0,0,0 > 90°
to rotate from Z-up to Y-up
Or vice versa,270°
(or -90° if that works in that case)

I suppose you ask how to restore the Word Coordinate System (WCS). It's quite simple: Type ucs, then hit Enter twice. Done!

If you want to rotate the complete model about the X-, Y- or Z-axis, use the apropriate option of the ROTATE3D command.

That is typical of some CAD systems: Solidworks as an example. If that is the case you have the option available in communicator. If not you need to use the ROTATE3D command as reported by Louis.

I would love to have the Communicator.
But like similar products for other Software, currently there isn't a
single File Format in there that I could make use of.
(3D PDF maybe, but not really)
But generally that is the way I wish other File Formats (including DXF/DWG),
over a simple "Save As" should be.I'm curios how that will look like in v19 with FBX and DAE.
