Examples

To rotate the binder around the x-axis with respect to the base point (7258.2607, -1324.2481, 1468.3770) by an angle of 90 degrees:
*createplane 1 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 7258.2607 -1324.2481 1468.3770
*hf_RotateBinderSurf 1 90
To rotate the binder around y-axis with respect to the base point (7258.2607, -1324.2481, 1468.3770) by an angle of -90 degrees:
*createplane 1 0.0000 1.0000 0.0000 7258.2607 -1324.2481 1468.3770
*hf_RotateBinderSurf 1 -90
