I have some 'acoustical clouds' that are oriented on two axies. I need to figure out a way to rotate them on two planes. Or one at a time, which doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

I would suggest rotating them in plan how you want and then creating a temporary section where you can rotate them again. or two sections depending on how you need to rotate them.

Tried that. The clouds need to be rotated in the z. It is acting like they are locked or pinned and just won't let me rotate.

Edit the family and under settings, uncheck the defaulted "always vertical".

Doesn't work. I even tried set it to a workplane. It won't ackwonledge a work plane at an angle, but it does see them when they are horizontal.

Okay, figured it out. I had to rename the family and in the options have workplane based checked, vertical off. Then set a workplane in a section. Add the componet in plan view and pick the refence plane. A bit of a pain cause I have 20 something clouds and they are all angled slightly different, but it works.
