Hello. Right mouse click on that 7L yellow beam - Move use keyboard arrows to move the part or enter the coordinates manualy. If something does not work - try to reinstall the application 1) Select ROTATE in the top right corner. 2) Left mouse click on that 7L yellow beam - arrows with circuits will appear in 3 dimensions. Click on the neccessary circle and DO not unlick the mouse, simply move - the part will rotate. Either click on the circle and enter the neccessary angle manually Edited December 29, 2025 by Aleh Quote

Jurss Posted December 29, 2025 Posted December 29, 2025 In LDD it was pretty easy, in Studio possible, but with some struggle. Just retry many times until success. 5 hours ago, Sjitbox1337 said: https://ibb.co/672KMHJX (sorry for link file is too big too post here) When You will read forum rules, You will find out, hot to do that ;) Quote

Then put it back (maybe in manual mode). Collision feature should be turned off Option 2. Connect this liftarm to the lower point and then rotate, clicking the arow.

Cardboy Posted December 29, 2025 Posted December 29, 2025 (edited) I find that if you select the pin then the beam that you want to rotate you have better luck the order of selection can be important. Check that the beam you want to move is not clipping any other part of the model except the pin its connected to or studio thinks there linked. Also use the side and front view numbers 1-6 on the number pad this will lock the camera making it easier to line up the holes. This works well if you move the part way from the model with the transform tool. I find that if when you select rotate, single click on the dot between the arrows the will bring up the rotation circle. moving the mouse inside the circle is in 5 degree increments. outside is free rotation for fine control. also if you click in the white box you can type the exact angle you want.
