I want to attach a U bracket with the legs down and there is no way to flip it around in the editor. Doesn't matter How I view it, it's always upside down

oh great her's another problem,
I open my U bracket then go to library click create sub Assembly, it tells me to pick the face to mate, the next screen comes up and I name it. I then load my case and click edit followed by click the face to attach to. in the edit screen I pick the part to attach and place it. back in the case 3D instead of mating to the face of the sub part I picked earlier it attaches to the web part of the U bracket and it's sticking through the lid.
If I had CAD I'd have been done a long time ago and I barely know CAD.

I am sorry you are finding it difficult to use, the bracket sub assembly is a brand new feature and we forgot to add the ability to flip it around. No excuses, all I can say is I'm sorry, I will fix that immediately. Should be putting out a maintenance release this week and there is no reason we can't get that done for this release.
Sincerest apologies,

Was wondering if you will be able to do this on the back of the 5U case i'm trying to design? I know there's know way I can get it on your design app.

The brackets now install properly with this build:

I will have our tech person check the forum out and get you an answer on the rear panel.
