how I can cordinate/align a object according a axis(Z,X,Y)?
This is the top view, and as you can see, its not correct.
This is the front view, as you can see its slightly not according to the axis.

$\begingroup$ I m not sure what exactly you meant by aligning.But try Ctrl+Shift and rotating the middle mouse button and see if that's what you meant. $\endgroup$ – KnowledgeSeeker Apr 7 '17 at 13:16

You can use align rotation of the snapping tool. But you have to align an object with straight axes onto your mesh and then rotate it back.

$\begingroup$ This seems to answer the question I myself have, but I can't manage to understand it. Do you "use align rotation" before or after aligning the cube with the thing ? What is happening to the initial object's set of axis that makes it so you can enter 0 in Z and it unrotates it, but you couldn't unrotate it that way before aligning the cube ? $\endgroup$ – Nikana Reklawyks Apr 28 '18 at 16:18

1$\begingroup$ @NikanaReklawyks Align rotation is active when snapping. Then I join the old mesh to the cube so that its coordinate system is overwritten, you could also use a parent-child dependency. Finally I set the object rotation to 0 by hand. $\endgroup$ – Dimali May 2 '18 at 7:47

$\begingroup$ Thanks : "joining the old mesh to the cube to overwrite the old coordinate system" is the key point I missed. $\endgroup$ – Nikana Reklawyks May 2 '18 at 16:49
