aligning face with board for rounded objects
rajat_jain_785 , 07-07-2020, 02:44 AM
Hello,
I have a radial electrolytic capacitor which is cylindrical in shape. It is through hole mounted with the leads bent at 90 degree and cylinder being horizontal
When I use the command Tools --> 3D Body Placement --> Align Face with Board, Altium won't allow aligning face with board for the cylinder since it is round
Kindly suggest what can I do ?

You should be able to align the 3D model manually. For example you can try to change the Standoff Height value:
