Rotating 90° (Pixel)

The Rotate 90° operation in Foxel allows you to quickly rotate pixel grids by 90 degrees along a specified axis. This method is non-destructive, making it ideal for frequent adjustments to your pixel models. Note that this operation does not rotate the object itself; it only repositions the pixels within the grid.

Steps to Rotate Pixel Grids by 90°

1. Select pixels, Pixel Layers, or Pixel References.
2. Navigate to one of the following menu entries:
   • Pixel > Transform > Rotate 90° CW (rotates clockwise)
   • Pixel > Transform > Rotate 90° CCW (rotates counterclockwise)
   • Pixel > Transform > Rotate 180°

INFO

When Pixel References are rotated using this operation, the rotation value is added to the grid rotate property.

Steps to Rotate Heightmaps by 90°

1. Open the Heightmap asset you wish to rotate.
2. Navigate to one of the following menu entries, depending on the direction you want to rotate:
   • Asset > Rotate 90° CW (rotates clockwise)
   • Asset > Rotate 90° CCW (rotates counterclockwise)
   • Asset > Rotate 180°

Note

When you rotate a Heightmap, all contained Pixel Objects are rotated and repositioned accordingly.
