Trying to rotate tool paths with geometry

[Go Navy]

Can anyone help me with this simple problem. I am trying to rotate my wire frame geometry 90 degrees and already have tool paths created. Is there a way to rotate them both at the same time? Every time I rotate my geometry 90 degrees about the origin my tool paths get left behind. Thank you all in advance for all the help.

Are you sure about that. If you already have toolpath's and modify the geometry, you should just have to regen the toolpath. Once you move the geometry, look at your operation in the operation manager see if there is a red X over the nci for that op. Then just regen it.

You must be telling Mastercam to keep the original path.

 

Go back into your transform menu and look at all the toggles and experiment.

 

and ya what Trev said....

 

Oh ya, press alt T...

Murlin, he's trying to xform/rotate geometry, not toolpaths.

Thanks for all the help! It's the simple things that are killing me. All I needed to do is turn all the levels on then rotate my geometry and regen my tool paths just like you said

 

thanks for all the help you guys are the best

Have a great day
