transform the axis

hello, i create a cylinder, but i want to see the upside not the side view of it. so i want to rotat the Y-axis of it. I know that there is a command like rotY, how can i use it? (i dont want to change the view of other existing objects)

Even if you might landed in the wrong forum,
in case of OpenGL, it depends which profile you use.

OpenGL ES1 Example of rotating the OpenGL fixed-function modelview matrix:

For further questions, please read our unit tests,
or better read some OpenGL tutorials first.
I would recommend to drop the fixed-function pipeline
altogether and focus on the OpenGL core programmable APIs only,
which some call 'Advanced OpenGL Techniques ..' or the like.
