Best option for rotating views?

[patricks]

I created a building model with north facing up in the plan views, and the building orients horizontally in plan views. It would be better if the plan views oriented vertically on the sheets (north facing to the right) in order to fit all the plan views on one sheet. If I change the view rotation property, all the annotations rotate with it. Should I just select the whole model and rotate it, or is there some other option?

Settings->Location and Coordinates->Rotate this Project/True North.

Each view has a setting called Orientation (Project North/True North) so it can be displayed on the sheet correctly.

Experiment with the rotation of the project first and read the help file. It woks a bit backward from what you might expect.

LOL I thought I was the only one whose true north and project north setting always come out backwards. It does work, but it always seemt to be exactly oppsite of what the names call it. I feel better now...
