1. The North Arrow is a graphic indicator to orient the user to the model.
2. The North Arrow has no bearing on the results or when combining 2 models together.
3. North Arrow is independent of the Global Axes option, means if Global Axes are disabled and North Arrow is enabled the North Arrow will be displayed on the screen.
4. The angle of the north arrow is measured on a horizontal axis in clockwise direction. The reference axis will be Global +X in Y-up coordinate system and Global +Y for Z-up coordinate system.
5. Unit of the angle depends on the model's units.
6. When using AutoPIPE V8i 09.06.00.15 and lower, the North arrow setting is not saved with the model, a new enhancement has been logged so that the north arrow setting is saved with the model.
