According to patch notes we now should be able to switch rotation axis.

Bethesda didn't mention what key it might be on PC, however I found out that it "should" be mapped to the sprint key.

Although other people report that this is working fine, it's not working for me at all.

I went throug all keys on my keyboard but couldn't find any key that would swith rotation axis. All items still keep rotating horizontally.

Anyone any idea?

No mods, running vanilla.

Had Steam check my game files as well, nothing to complain.

I thing Right and left mouse rotates.

"Shift" for one axis, and "C" for the opposite axis.

Just try and see if it works!
