Ok guys, I got another one for you. I have a floor plan view that I want to rotate on the sheet 90 degrees counter-clockwise. Seems pretty simple. According to everything I've researched I shouuld be able to simply rotate the crop region. But it's not working. The view is oriented to "project north", the crop region uses a scope box. When I rotate the crop region 90 degrees, it automatically rotates 180 degrees. I can't get it to rotate to something other than 180. What gives?

You do know there are two options here.  One is to rotate the view as you are trying to do.  That only rotates the model objects but annotatative objects will stay horizontal with respect to your screen.  You also have the option to rotate the view on the sheet.  That is the completed view, text and all.  Which do you really want?

If you do decide to rotate the view, you probably need to turn off the scope box and use the crop boundry.

Yea, I do know about the two options. Rotating it on the sheet was not what I was after since that rotates the title as well.

I did get it figured out. Apparently I needed to rotate the scope box that the crop region was assigned to. So many things to check. ;-)
