I have doors and windows, whose text indicating the height and width are inverted reading orientation, the attached image shows that some are right others not, can anyone help me with this?

I think it might be the wall angle is not aligned to the X axis. Could you check that?

I verified that it is aligned on the X axis as it should be, or it is imperceptible, I tried to align it with a horizontal line and nothing happened, I also dimensioned it with another horizontal wall, and it was exactly 180º.

@engjeancarlos Sometimes the only way to force AC to be on the X-Axis is to drag the wall away by a significant amount and then reset it either by snapping to the X-Axis or entering the angle in the tracker coordinates.

I would agree, the wall on the left (markers read from the left) is not exactly horizontal.
