channnel objects

I have just used a "par flange channel beam" from the Steel Beams 9 Archicad library. I've rotated it so that it is facing up (-90 degrees) and find that its representation on plan views is wrong. Its centre line and hot spots have not moved correctly when I rotated it and the object locates incorrectly. It is in fact, unusable. The 3D view is fine. No, I can't find any other library objects that do what I need. I guess I'll have to get into thescript (if it lets me) and try to fix it.

I have found many other scrappy, or indifferent, library parts in the Archicad libraries. Very disappointing, because it has so many useful objects.

Makes me realise how impecable the draughtmanship of Theometric Library objects are.
