Rotating everything in the entire projects 90 deg.

[Steve Jepson]

Is there a good way to do this or do you have to do it all manually?

I started out modeling and drawing with the wrong orientation and now there is a lot more to rotate than just the model.

It would be nice if there were a group all feature for times like this.
One of the main difficulties in doing this is that you can can't group things like the section and elevation markers.

My plan is to show all in every Project Map, group everything, add some hot spots, show in 3D, select all, and rotate. I am hoping there is a better way to do this.

Yes, I know how to rotate the drawings in layout. But there are reasons why a project might need to be rotated for reasons that can not be accommodated by that sort of thing.

Can't you just use the Rotate Orientation button below the Floor Plan Viewpoint to rotate it 90 degrees?

That only changes which direction is designated as north. That would be fine except in it doesn't change how the project is oriented on the screen or in the drawings.

For a single family residence I usually put the front door at the bottom of the sheet and show project north wherever that makes it.

In this case, they want the drawings changed so that they will all be oriented with north at the top of the sheet. It is not an unreasonable request. It's just that I started out modeling it differently and now rotating everything has some complications.

For me it DOES change the orientation of the Project on the screen.
Also, when I save a View and place that on a Layout, it will place it rotated.
Maybe we are talking about two different things.

All layers on, grouping suspended, heavy marquee, rotate command (CMD-E or CTRL-E). Done.

And if you rotate about 0,0 any 2D elements in section / elevation views should still line up.

Dangit s2art!
Your too late. I already it the hard way.
