Reset orientation constrains

Anonymous
Not applicable
At some point AC started to remember the rotated orientation that was once set in the project. That is pretty useful in general but having a bad luck I managed to set two very close angles (within a minute). And now when I draw occasionally it snaps to the incorrect direction and makes me mad.

I couldn't find a way to reset that directional constrains to re-set them correctly. Is it even possible in AC21?

2 options, none too fast.
First one is that since AC only stores a limited set of orientations if you create new ones instead of selecting the previous ones will disappear from the list.
The other is to do a "New and Reset" to create a new File and that will remove all orientations and then you can open the previous file. For this one if before doing the N+R you have the orientation set to the one you want to keep then when you open the file again this orientation should be there.
