Actually, no. It's not as simple as that -I think you're talking about something other than my query.
Not to worry anyway, because I found a solution to my problem. I just change the reference axis to be defined from a node rather than defined as aligning with a global axis.
Note that member V1 is defined by node (5,0,2) and node (5,1,2), whilst member H1 is defined by node (0,0,0) and (5,0,2)
So in this case, I set member V1 to reference node (0,0,0)
Therefore member V1's y-axis is now defined as the plane formed by nodes (5,0,2) (5,1,2) and (0,0,0).
This means member V1 is aligned at 90 to H1, instead of being at some weird angle.
Thanks for your help
Kind regards,
Greg
