Hi, currently i am working on bending the patch array antenna.
I would like to rotate the discrete port, same as i did...
using the bend tools -> cylindrical bend -> angle 15 degree
but, the thing is discrete port could't use the bend tools
So that, Only the patch antenna is bent in a cylindrical shape, however the discrete port remains in their position.
so i try to use transform for roatation... the angle of roate is different from bend tool..
is there any way ?!
Find the co-ordinates of the centre of the port that you want to move, and the co-ordinates of where you want the centre to be. You can use M or A or other point select tools to do this. If you copy the patch before you bend it then you will have both still there so you can select the two points and then use transform to move the discrete port using the selected points. Then you can rotate the port about the new centre point so it lines up with the face. You may be able to use picks to do this but maybe you will need to get the angle exactly right. I am not sure the port will work, even then, but it will be properly lined up on the new face.

Thanks for your reply, i tried the way you mentioned, some ports rotated properly but the others didn't. Because of the angle, i think.
Anyway, Thanks for your kindly answer.
