Selecting the Rotate and Shift item from the Edit menu opens the dialog below, which allows the user to rotate angular orientation or shift (x,y) coordinates of specified drawing components.
Rotation Reference Coordinate: Defines reference coordinate location
for rotation or translation (i.e. Shift) operation.
System (LL) - rotates (or shifts) the entire system (all networks) by the amount specified, i.e. degrees rotation or (x,y) translation. Note: Axis of Rotation is the Lowest, Left-most corner of the system-fit drawing window, i.e. intersection of the left-most component's vertical with the lower-most component's horizontal.
Substation - rotates (or shifts) all components supplied by the selected substation (or source) by the amount specified, i.e. degrees rotation or (x,y) translation.
Circuit - rotates (or shifts) all components supplied by the selected circuit by the amount specified, i.e. degrees rotation or (x,y) translation.
Component - rotates the selected component and all downstream components the amount specified (i.e. degrees rotation); or shifts defined component location to the specified (x,y) coordinate location. Note: All other components in applicable network are shifted relatively with defined component.
Coordinate Point (x,y) - rotates the coordinate plane of drawing components about the specified (x,y) coordinate point (i.e. origin) by the specified amount (in degrees).
[Pick... Circuit / etc] - enables (left-click) mouse selection
(via pointer finger) of Component,
Substation, or Circuit where rotation or shift operation will occur.
Note: Command is not applicable for System or Coordinate Point selections,
and is therefore inactive.
Reference Coordinate
Information: Displays or defines reference coordinate information
for the indicated selection.
[______________]
- display window indicates the Local Name (or an applied designator) for
the current selection.
X-Crd
Location [__] - displays representative x-coordinate of selected
component (i.e. from-node), defines the x-coordinate (origin location)
of rotational axis, or defines (horizontal) x-shift value for translation.
Y-Crd Location [__] -
displays representative y-coordinate
of selected component (i.e. from-node), defines the y-coordinate (origin
location) of rotational axis, or defines (vertical) y-shift value for
translation.
Angle
to Rotate (Degs) [__] - defines the angle of rotation (in degrees)
for indicated selection using right-hand rule, i.e. positive rotational
angle for counter-clockwise rotation.
[Rotate Circuit Components] - command button for executing the defined Rotation or translation (i.e. Shift/Move) operation.
[__] Zoom Factor - enables user to control the Zoom level, i.e. In [++] or Out [--], of the drawing window during the Rotation/Translation interaction.
