I have a problem with the orientation in the dwg. We rotated our terrain in 260,62, when we save dwgs, they are in different orthogonal projection. Could you help me?</T></DIV> Fri, 05 Oct 2018 15:33:34 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Rotating-problem-with-dwg/m-p/249892#M32631 Anonymous 2018-10-05T15:33:34Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Rotating-problem-with-dwg/m-p/249893#M32632 Is there a proper way the dwgs to look like our orientation in archicad Fri, 05 Oct 2018 15:34:19 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Rotating-problem-with-dwg/m-p/249893#M32632 Anonymous 2018-10-05T15:34:19Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Rotating-problem-with-dwg/m-p/249894#M32633 Bump on this post please,<BR /> <BR /> we are having the same issue which is creating a very time consuming and problematic export process involving rotating the model in a seperate .pln when we require .dwg's for external consultants.<BR /> <BR /> Is there a workaround or is this an unforeseen bug?
