Rotating the rotational axis?

Does Maya have a way to rotate the rotational axis. I have a few items selected and I want to line up the rotate axis to an arbitrary axis, that is not global or world. So I can rotate on only one axis. Like Max's pivot controls (effect pivot only).

thanks

Yes maya can do this. Go into componant mode and use the question mark icon. You can then select and rotate the rotation pivot.
