Get the position angle of an object in relation to x/y or north

Anonymous

Dear members,

I am searching for a way to get the angle of an library-object in relation to the x- or y-axes of the floorplan in an interactive schedule.
so I can lable e.g. all windows which have position angle between 45° to 135° look to north and so on.

I have found the parameter "angleRotate" in the d/w-parametersbut I can not get it in a schedule...

I hope some of you can give me a hint how to get the orientation of my objects.

best regards from vienna,
Klaus

Have you tried SYMB_ROTANGLE ?
This will give you the rotation angle of your object.
