Rotating or moving objects in the arbitrary planes

Hi chaps, say I've created an extrusion and want to rotate or move it in some arbitrary plane. It seems I can only rotate or move it in the plane I've delineated it's outline. Is it possible somehow to rotate or move it in any other plane(as it's shown on the attached image with red lines)? It seems that setting work plane only allows me to create new extrusion in it but doesn't allow me to rotated or move in it the extrusion already created in another work plane. The same pertains to any other objects besides the extrusions and it doesn't work in projects as well as in family editors.

 

Thank you very much for your helpScreenshot_70.jpg

... of course

... you can create a new plane with the angle you need

... then chose the extrusion and pick a new plane

Thank you very much for assistance. Could you please tell me whether it's possible to place the group of extrusions created in different planes(see the image) on the other plane so that it was possible to rotate or move them in it togetjer?Screenshot_71.jpg

For such you should create a work plane based family, untick always vertical, draw the extrusions there, load in the project. Then you can choose to place it on any plane, or relocate it from one plane to another.

.... as I know yes you can

... I think if you have the objects as a group you can move the group as a unity

(it will work like a family)

 

... upload the group and we can take a look to see if the theory is good

 

.... you can create a plan with the reference plan or with another extrusion

... and then pick the plan and use it
