rotate all the simulation

Hello,

> i'm new on yade

welcome :-)

> i created a particles deposition in a Box and i saved the particles positions. I would like to save also the Box position (is built with facets (geom.facetbox) .In this way i should have a file where is texted the particles and box positions.

I would save the facets in a separate file as for spheres there is pre-defined function for both save and load. But if you insist on a single file, it is possible (you can open the file with particles and write some more lines with facets position).

> After this , i would like to rotate everything of 45° along Z axes in another script. Any idea of how can i do it? I mean , i want to paste box and particles positions rotate of 45° before the simulation starts. Does exist any function that allow me to do it?

See below. You can also leave the geometry as it is and rotate the "rest" (like loading etc.)
a MWE for saving facets in a separate file. I inserted some comments, but if anything is not clear, do not hesitate to ask.
