The default 3D rotation order drop-down sets, by default, in what order the object rotates on its axis. This can be changed for individual object groups in the Building Objects dialog.

Selecting one of the available options will then adjust in what order the axis will be applied in the Build Objects dialog.

The axis rotation is calculated in the order specified, in the example above it is:
X
Z
Y
Note: Hovering the cursor over the axis text box will display a popup which details rotation on the selected axis (X, Y, Z).
