Object

Aligns the selected object to the rotation axis.

Line:
Aligns the selected object to the rotation axis.
Angle:
Rotates the object around the selected line by a specified angle.
Reference:
Specifies reference angle and new angle. The difference value between the start angle and endpoint angle is the rotation angle.

- Circle:
Aligns the rotation axis to the 3D axis of the circle (the rotation axis passes through the circle center and is perpendicular to the circle plane).

- Arc:
Aligns the rotation axis to the 3D axis of the arc (the rotation axis passes through the arc center and is perpendicular to the arc plane). - 2D-polyline segment:
Aligns the rotation axis to the polyline. The line in polyline can be seemed as a line segment and the arc in polyline can be seemed as an arc segment.
