From here, you may rotate an element such as a piping elbow or reducer. This almost only happens when you are using append mode to insert elbows or reducers, however. Simply select the tool, left click and hold on the elbow, and begin to move your mouse.

Similar to rotating an elbow, you can also rotate a reducer. Simply select the tool, left click and hold on the reducer, and begin to move your mouse.

The last rotatable object is a valve. This is most pertinent when you need to rotate the handwheel of the valve to the proper position in the point cloud. Simply select the tool, left click and hold on the valve wheel, and begin to move your mouse.
