Controls the rotation of the isometric drawing in a clockwise direction by a user-specified number of degrees.

Type 0 to orient isometric drawings in the horizontal plane using the North Direction setting.

Alternatively, type the number of degrees by which to orient the isometric drawing in the horizontal plane in a clockwise direction. This user-specified value overwrites the North Direction setting.

Where pipelines or components are oriented in a non-primary, or skewed, direction, the subsequent isometric drawing output can be congested and difficult to read. The ability to orient pipelines or components in the horizontal plane so that the majority of sections are rotated to a primary direction can simplify isometric drawing output. The example below shows pipe oriented in a southeasterly direction:

The next example shows the same pipe rotated 45ยบ so that it is now in a southerly direction:
