Do I have a way to rotate the 3d model during the step export?
I am using Grabcad to visualize my step files and to share them with other people. But when I load them there, there are these buttons to rotate the object. There the Front fits the side, Left rotates it to the front. It is kind of confusing, so I would like to fix the 3d model while exporting to have the same view I have on Freecad, there.

Re: Rotate object while exporting step file
If it is a single object from Part or PartDesign, you can change itsPlacement.
If you have several objects, create a Part container and drag all objects into it. Then change the Placement of the container.

Re: Rotate object while exporting step file
Makes sense. But this is going to change the way it is placed in Freecad too, isn't it?
Or you are saying to change the placement of th container and also, fixing the placement of the parts inside of it, so both Freecad and another tool would have the same placement?
