Use the cheat, boolprop allow45degreeangleofrotation true in the neighborhood screen, to rotate objects in 45 degree angles. Use the < and > keys to rotate the objects. Or you could use this object of you don't have any EP's or don't want to use cheats.

This cheat requires University so if you don't have that EP it won't work.

boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true/false is the way it's published.  Most cheats aren't case sensitive.

I find I don't have to worry about upper or lower case, but for some reason, some people do. Try typing it in as ancient has it.

LaurenW:

by the numbers:

1. start a raw text editor like Notepad in Windows
2. on the menu bar click File
3. on the pop-up menu click Open
4. in the browser window look for Files of Type - change this to All Files
5. browse to My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Config
6. open userStartup.cheat - create this file if it does not exist

IMPORTANT: although this is a text file, it does NOT use the .txt file extension, it must be named userStartup.cheat to be used by the game.

7. add a new line at the top
8. add boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true on the first line
9. create a blank line after boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true
10. save the file

Now as soon as the game starts it will be enabled and you no longer have to add it every time.

Correct me if I`m wrong, but isn`t Uni required to do it? Do you have University EP Lauren? or what EPs do you have?

then it seems you have a bad install of the game, and may have to do a complete un-install and re-install.  Before you get to that - are you tapping the , key or . key before clicking the mouse?  be advised, not ALL items will turn 45 degrees
