It does exactly what you are looking for. It allows for rotating text to the a selected view rotation angle. It will even rotate text within cells if you want. It&amp;#39;s no longer available for download from our website, but if you send me an email (rod@envisioncad.com) I will send you the macro.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As an aside, many of the DOT&amp;#39;s are slow to respond to enhancements in MicroStation. The often retain workflows from V7 long after V8 offers a much better workflow.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the 3D/2D example, in V7, you could not attach 2 3D file to a 2D file, so it was often necessary to work exclusively in 3D so that if you ever needed to reference in a 3D file you could. Also, Sheet Models have become very sophisticated since their initial introduction, yet many DOT&amp;#39;s still expect a print sheet model to be no different than it was in V7 - just another design file except it had a border and was plotter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And since most DOT&amp;#39;s are feeling the budget crunch these days, this is not likely to change any time soon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
