Just gave this a try... why is it that when you rotate a brick, the x,y,z movement also rotates with it? What I mean is that once you have rotated a 2x4 brick 90 degrees clockwise, when trying to position that part, moving the mouse left moves the part forwards, moving it forwards moves the part right and so on. That makes no sense - surely it's a bug?

Hardly to say what exactly you mean without seeing some sreenrecord.
I may just guess that you should learn a little about "Relative" and "Absolute" coordinates in LeoCAD (see menu "Edit > Transform", "Transform" buttons on main toolbar and on "Properties" widget).[0]

I'm not sure.
UPD: Follow related issue thread[1]; alternatively use rotation arrows[3] for rotate (click on each rotation arrow with mouse and move it)
