How to rotate a 2D Plot?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I built a model with a 3D geometry. Unfortunately the created 2D plot (postprocessing), which is based on a cut plane, is rotated by 90°. Is it possible to rotate the 2D plot back by 90° or to exchange the axis (x/y -> y/x)?

Thank you in advance!

Kenji-

When you define your Cut Plane you can define a yx-plane instead of an xy-plane. This should work for you.

Hi!

I'm at loss for how to do this with a general plane type (which I have to use since the plane I want to plot has it's normal pointing towards x^-y^).

Thanks in advance for answer!

I made a quick breakthrough just after posting :)

A parameterized surface did the trick.
