[TowerTalk] EZNEC 5.0 Question

If you want the wire to rotate down, it must rotate around the X or Y axis, depending on which plane the wire is in.  Think of the axis you choose as having an axle going through the end of the wire in that direction.  

So select the wire in the first two boxes, Rotation Amount: 45 CW or CCW, Rotation Axis: X or Y, Rotation Center:  select Wire, specify the wire number and which end remains fixed.

How do you rotate a wire end down, like taking a horizontal dipole and configuring it as a sloper? In the WIRES menu, I'm telling it to rotate -45 deg in the Z (height) axis. I thought that should lower that wire end at a -45 degree angle.

I'm much more used to V3.0!!!
