Why does my 0805 resistor look crooked in the 3D preview?

"Using DipTrace for PCB layout, ran into a couple of issues, need some expert help! 😅

Why does my 0805 resistor look crooked in the 3D preview? Is it an issue with the package?
Using the free version of DipTrace, any simple tutorials you recommend? #PCBDesign #DipTrace"

In PCB Layout, right-click on a component. A context menu will appear — select 3D Model. Here you can set offsets and rotation angles for the 3D model to bring it to the desired appearance.
You can also use the user tutorial to find answers to your questions. Open the main menu Help → DipTrace Tutorial.
