Rotated axis?

Anonymous

Hi,

Having located my building on the OS survey it is rotated in plan because the site is not on the xy axis. In order to create my plans to be orthogonal (rather than at an odd angle), I set the orientation of them (which comes to 41.89 degree,). This is all fine but my issue is that now the axis shows rotated and this seems to be showing my fill area text rotated as well (see attached image). It's also happening with cutting planes that follow the original axis. I hope this makes sense...

How do I get the axis to work orthogonally rather than taking the angle of the building, without changing the orientation of my plan to 0 degrees each time?

Thanks

It is normal to have orientation in a modell.

Make sure your text on the fill have 0 degree for relative to orientation
