I have drawn a 3d polyline across a stream channel and want to rotate it about the x-axis so i can trace the elevation profile of the crossing. 3d rotate in civil 3d 2012 is not allowing me to pick the axis i want to rotate about??? This worked great in previous versions?? Am i missing something?? This is very simple and i dont have a need for a surface or sections or profiles...i just want to trace the 3d polyline profile.

I know nothing of C3D and don't know why 3DRotate isn't working as expected, but a very simple way to rotate "anything" about the x axis is to switch to Left or Right orthogonal view and use the regular ROTATE command. Also, once you're looking at the profile of the 3Dpoly, you can simply FLATTEN it into a 2Dpoly rather than tracing it.
