Take a look on the page 35.<BR /> <BR /> <A href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/8js7690pq6y1clg/MANUAL.pdf?dl=0" target="_blank"><LINK_TEXT text="https://www.dropbox.com/s/8js7690pq6y1c ...

Save the view as site plan or similar. So you will get two different views - one for site plan with true north and your architectural plans oriented orthogonally.
