Trying to dimension detail views made as callouts from one section. Revit answers" The plans of one or more references are not exactly orthogonal to this view.,...."

I cant find the angular difference in the sections tag, so I suspected the whole house to be out of coordinates. Trying with a detail line as reference there was a difference of 0.001 mm in 20 meters. Which I corrected by aligning the wall to the detail line.

Anyway , in the parent view horizontal measuring is allowed but not in the callouts. Doesn't´t the callout turn with if I correct the direction of the parent section.

Confusing (and time-wasting)

The solution is to make a new callout after turning the section orthogonal to building and then copy paste all detail stuff from old to new callout
