MN_JohnH Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I know this has been talked about before but I can not find it and I can't figure out how to do it again. I have a house drawing and I have the terrain drawn and I would like to orient the house differently on the terrain. I want to keep my house drawing square with my plan so it would need to be the terrain itself that has to rotate. I can rotate the terrain perimeter but that doesn't rotate the elevation lines etc. When I select the perimeter and all the elevation lines, i am not able to rotate the whole thing.

builtright3 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Chopsaw posted this June 2nd, 2019 for the same questions; Go to your plot plan layerset and turn off or lock anything that needs to stay in position and then use CTRL A and transform replicate to rotate everything at once including the north arrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN_JohnH Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 When I select everything to rotate, rotating is not an option. there is no rotation handle and in the transform replicate the rotate is not an option. I can select one element and rotate but if I select all, it is not an option. Here is the plan with just the terrain and perimeter and a plot sat image. just terain.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdyck Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Your problem is this added light. Select all, then deselect the light. You'll be good to go. Or turn off the added light layer! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you tell me? Nope. An added light that is a Point Light won't rotate even on its own, but an added light that is a spotlight will rotate on its own and with a group of objects.
