Little Help

I sure this has been asked a lot of time, but I have been wondering how you can turn doodads upside down. Is there a hotkey for that like for deforming ("+","-")? I know how to swivel and deform and stuff, but how can you actually place for example a house so that the roof touches the ground and the floor is in the sky. I know its a bad example, I just can't think of anything better. Also please excuse my bad English.

Go into the object editor, go to the doodad you want to flip, hold shift down, open the field Max Roll, and put in -3.14 I think. Just try different negative values. Also make sure negative values are allowed, go to preferences and find Allow negative values in object editor.

But that means that I can only do it for the whole doodad type and not a single doodad by itself, right?

Copy the doodad and make your own custom one and put in the new value, then alternate between your custom one and the original as needed.

DungeonM said it, that's the only way to do it, no you can't tilt an already placed doodad.

This doesn't work for me. /sad
And it's -1.74, -3.14 makes it align with the terrain - upside down. At least I think so.

-1.74 is sideways, -3.14 is upside down, which is what he asked for. Why wouldn't you want it to align with the terrain?
