Are you trying to rotate certian entities, or the view?

Please note I have moved this post to the forum as I believe it is better served here.

Not sure if this is what you want, but have you tried the UCS (User Coordinate System) command?

I'm trying to rotate the view so that north is not at the top of the screen, but at some given angle.

Thanks, the dview with a twist worked.

I'm a long time microstation user forced to convert to autocad by company edict.
