Viewport Rotation Angle

[dmingo]

Does anyone know if there is a way to tell the rotation angle in a viewport that has been rotated using 'MVSETUP>ALIGN>ROTATE'?

It's the roll angle that is changed... we don't deal much with rotated views here but this will work. Probably a better way someone else will come up with.

Double Click into the viewport -> type VIEW -> the roll angle will be in the list of properties

Cooll -- I leaned something that's going to be very handy. thanks!

Alternatively - type VIEWTWIST instead of VIEW

The angle will be displayed on your command line.

Thanks much to all.
Tried both and got 2 different results (off by exactly 90°)
I will have to keep that in mind when using this.
VIEW gave me 250° 36' 54"
VIEWTWIST gave me 340° 36' 54".

Thank again all.

Is this the same command as using the Express Tool > Layout Tools > Align Space?


I have always used the Dview > Twist command to rotate drawings.

Dunno. Never used it.
I just tried it, but it doesn't have the same prompts, so I would say "no".
