Set Orientation in ARCHICAD

Hi. I was given a complete project in ARCHICAD and I had to edit it for the building permit. As it appears the project was made by Set Orientation option:

Here's how it is set. But the trouble appears when I set the View Maps. When I place the drawing from the view maps the area texts are being rotated. They don't remain horizontal and readable because the whole project is drawn that way. See photo:

Is there any possible way to edit the View Maps Settings to fix this issue?

 

Thanks!

Hi here an example.

You need to do it by yourself they are not automatically. After you have chosen the right setting then you click create a new view in the view map (Blue folder) and they keep record of your angle. You can also enter in your current view then change your angle and press get current windows setting. You can find on the first row in your screenshot

Hi

Did you create a new view with this angle? If you create a new one choosing the angle of 7 then you will have the right view.

Hi.

Unfortunately I don't know how to create new view automatically for all floor plans. Is it possible in the View Map?
