Axis Z

Set the dimensionless z component of the rotation axis through Axis Point X/Y/Z.

Location

Geometry workspace → Revolve → Axis Z

Initial value: 0.

Set the dimensionless z component of the rotation axis through Axis Point X/Y/Z. The three components are normalized, so their magnitude does not change the object size. Use a nonzero vector; a zero vector currently falls back to global +z.

Using the value

Place the work plane and profile before the consuming operation in the sequence. Build All Geometry and inspect the profile or solid from more than one view.

Troubleshooting

Check the work-plane reference, local coordinates and axis direction. A planar profile alone is not a three-dimensional meshable volume.
