Hi all,

I hope to rotate my red slice and I found out that Reformat is the perfect choice. However, when I try to use it from a Python scripted module. I cannot find the function from reformat.logic or reformat widget. I’m trying to implement this👇 in python. Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks for your time!

See examples in the script repository:
