    Hello,

    You can change the direction of gravity in MotionView.

    Please Follow below steps:

    Go to Project Browser > Data Sets >Solver Gravity

     

    And you can see Value -9810 in Z component, that represents Gravity in Z Direction ('-' sign indicate downword direction)

    You can Change it to Y component 9810 and other two component X & Z are 00.00 ('-' or '+' sign as per your model )
