Viewport Rotation (Solved)
Is it possible to rotate viewports in paper space?

Re: Viewport Rotation
If you select your viewport and then look in the properties editor, there is a rotation field under Specific Properties. It looks like it will rotate the contents inside of the viewport, but not the viewport rectangle itself.
Re: Viewport Rotation
Thanks for that. I had trouble selecting the viewport. I had to use the Select All command to select the Viewport.

Re: Viewport Rotation
That seems strange. In my experience, clicking anywhere within the bounds of the viewport will select the entire viewport, even if I put the viewport selection rectangle in a layer that I have made non-plottable. Is it possible that you put your viewport selection rectangle in a layer that you made non-visible? When I do this it still shows the contents of the viewport but I can't seem to select the viewport rectangle then.
Re: Viewport Rotation
Thanks for that. It was a layer thing that made the viewport unselectable. I changed the viewport layer to another layer and all works fine.ryancousins wrote: ↑Tue Mar 02, 2021 1:19 pmThat seems strange.
