Can I rotate plan view?

  • 1.  Can I rotate plan view?

    There are many cases where a North-South orientation doesn't necessarily make sense because of the orientation of project. I have tried to use the 3D view rotation but doing data prep in this view is not as quick and smooth and can be more frustrating than beneficial. Anyone have any tricks for this?

     

    What I am seeing:

     

     

     

    What I would like to see please:

     

     

    Thank you!

    You are correct - this is not possible today. I do the same thing with the 3D view and use the 3D View Settings to set the 3D View to Top and then use the Rotation Slider to rotate the job to the right orientation for what I am trying to do.

     

    Then just try not to click the wheel mouse to change the view angles etc - just zoom In and Out and Pan on Right Click

     

    This one is of course on the list

    Thank you.

     

    That would be great. Models for building foundation are particularly tricky with the current inability to rotate plan view. I did try using the 3D view put you lose functionality. For example editing linestrings is not as smooth as it is in plan view.
