Automatic North Angle on a Layout Sheet

[Andras Bognar]

It would be beneficial to have an object that automatically reads the floor plan's north orientation from the model and can then be placed on either a layout sheet or a master layout.

If the north arrow object in model space is hidden by a layer combination or located outside the drawing boundary, a layout sheet object should be able to read the placed view's orientation information directly and automatically display the correct north angle. This would ensure the north arrow remains accurate regardless of the model view's visibility and rotation settings.

@A21_Ma_Si : Drawing rotation is considered bad practice in our office, we only use saved view rotations, and this info is not accessible to GDL (drawing title & labels)
