How to rotate a part globally instead locally using CFrames?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Whenever I add rotation onto parts CFrame using:

workspace.Part.CFrame = workspace.Part.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0)

it only rotates the part locally, which is fine, but whenever the part is already rotated in a random direction, it rotates the part in an unwanted way. How would I change this to make the part rotate globally instead of locally?

#2 
CFrame.new(part.Position)*CFrame.Angles(x,y,z)

Should do the trick
It’ll make an unrotated CFrame using only the position then rotate it from there

#3

Should’ve clarified, that I want the rotation to be added onto the current rotation, and not to be replaced completely.

#4 
workspace.Part.CFrame = CFrame.new(workspace.Part.Position)*CFrame.Angles(math.rad(workspace.Part.Orientation.X + 15),0,0)

Arent post above solves issue? I guess it is if you got it right
UPD: Sent a wrong script, because of miscunderstanding

#5 
CFrame.Angles(x,y,z)*(cframe-cframe.p)+cframe.p

That should create a CFrame exactly like the current one but rotated in place relative to world rotation

If you mean pivoting it relative to the world origin this should work:

CFrame.Angles(x,y,z)*cframe
