how to change the position of an axis ?

[mohamed_slama]

Hello,

I want to rotate a 3D object by the Z-axis translated. In FlexSim, the axis go through the center of the object but what I want is to rotate the object around an axis parallel to the Z-axis but going through the extremity of the object.

Thanks,

Slama

Hi, @Mohamed Slama

You should find the "centroid" variables under the treeview of the object, and set its value to 2. Then Add 3 child node with numeric type whose value should be between 0 to 1 that means the ratio of 3 axises.

Here is an example pic:
