Rotating/Spinning an object??

I'm trying to rotate an object so the center is actually in the center of the object -

ex. a ring - i want the ring to rotate but not actually rotate around another circle - just spin - how to accomplish this?


Thanks!!

Click to expand...
If I understand correctly, you can place the ring so that the center of the world coincides with your intended object center. Then, use the Coord System command, and click on burn transform.

I hope this helps.
 
do you mind taking a look at my file - i need the inner ring to rotate in it's current position - i about got it but the center axis is still not quite .. well centered

thanks

Hi.
Like so?
Simply place a folder where the center should be and drag the object into the folder. Rotate now the folder.

With kindest regards
