Hi, I’m new to 3D design, so please be understanding, but I do not know where I’m making a mistake. I set the object on the grid to make it easier to draw internal objects. Unfortunately, from time to time, the entire object moves in relation to the grid. I do not know, maybe I have a function that I can not see, but I do not understand why this is happening. The program itself is quite intuitive, even for a beginner, but I do not understand this rotation on the grid. I uploaded the photo, to show this.

Have you tried locking end points of your sketch?

Best,

Dont know how to lock, but I started from the beginning, and so far its ok. But i still have no idea, what function I used, that it was spinning the object on the grid. It was my first project, so I tried to use every function to learn, and you know, „a bridge to far” 🙂

To lock a point click on it and you will see the lock icon. Click on the icon to lock so it can’t move. Locked points are black while unlocked points are unfilled.

Lock is also in the Menu Bar at the right of screen.
