Rotate an object

Russell B. Updated by Russell B.

Objects in Studio can be rotated prior to placing them on the sketch. Objects that can be rotated in Studio include rooms, roofs, stairs, decks, and items that include reference symbols (e.g. toilets, cabinets, stoves, etc.).

Note: The examples below will direct you to select a room. The steps are the same for any other previously mentioned Studio tool. For more information on adding line items in Studio, see our Add line items in Studio document.

  3. While continuing to hold, select the Tab key to rotate the item to the desired position.
    Note: Each tab press rotates the item 22.5 degrees clockwise. Select the Shift and Tab keys at the same time to rotate counterclockwise.
