Hi,

I just wanted to check that you discovered that you can change between landscape and paper orientation in the page setup in case that helps you in the meanwhile?

Hi
That works well if I do two pages. The problem is if I have both views on the same "paper". Then the top view will have a vertical orientation and the section view a horizontal orientation (if it's a rectangular space). It makes sense because then both views will have the same xyz-orientation. But it's hard to be space efficent an a rectangular paper. If I could just rotate one of the views 90 degrees that would be so nice.

Thanks for all the good work.

Cheers Ronald

Ressurecting an old suggestion, but this has just cropped up for us too.  

In a project we're planning at the moment there is a central circular truss surrounded by ten trusses of varying length radiating outwards.  

What we want to do is print a plot for each LX team to use while they're working on a specific truss. So we'd like ten plots, each with a single truss on. 

In the current setup this is ineficcient as only two of the trusses are orientated to the page! The rest are at a variety of angles as they rotate around the central circle.  

Plus one vote to be able to rotate views in plots.

I find I'm frequently designing quite long and thin venues with trusses out over the audience running down the room. I still want all of my 3D data to be correct and symetrical when imported to console - so it would be very beneficial to rotate just the view of the plot and leave the rest of my positioning in place, as we would be able to do with a viewport in vectorworks.

Thanks

Another 18 months or so since I last commented on this problem and I'm talking to a colleage who is having to make multiple copies of her file and then rotating the entire rig to match the angles of trusses so that they make sense on printed plots. Surely there must be a more elegant solution?

I realised what had happened when I opened the master capture file for the event to find everything at a jaunty angle, my colleague had accidently saved over after rotating the design the first time. 

Plot "viewports" could be defined as a rectangular selection in wireframe view, with the user able to rotate the bounding box accordingly to match the angle of the key object/truss
