Hallo Everyone

Im trying to rotate a searchableBox 60 deg (pi/3) with the following command:

refinementBox4
  {
    type searchableBox;  
    min (0.355 0.190 -0.01);
    max (0.485 0.250 0.12);
    transform
            {
                coordinateSystem
                {
                    type    cartesian;
                    origin  (0 0 0); 
                    coordinateRotation
                    {
                      type    localAxesRotation;
                      e3      (60 0 0);
                    }
                }
            }
  }

but it is not rotating at all, can anybody give me a hint of what im doing wrong ?

Hi Fridrik,
Have you solved this problem, I have exactly the same problem?

I'm posting my solution in the following. Hope it will help someone.

I rotated searchableBox for 45 deg. around y-axes.

zone1
    {
		name zone1;
        	type searchableRotatedBox;
        	span    (1 1 1); //dimensions of the box
        	origin  (0 0 -0.707); //first corner of the box - origin of local coordinate system

		//definition of the axes of the local coordinate system (cartesian, left-handed coordinate system)
                
		e1      (0.707 0 0.707); //relationship of e1 local axes and global coord.system
                e3      (-0.707 0 0.707); //relationship of e3 local axes and global coord.system
    }
