Single Rebarset tool not following Outline shape

I am attempting to place rebar in the abutment back side stem wall.  The red arrow in the picture is pointing to the shape used for the "RebarSet - Single.  The green arrow is pointing to the concrete and the face where the shape and rebar should go. But the rebar mat comes in at a strange angle as shown by the purple ?.  I have restarted the computer and application but continue to the the issue.  The same procedure actually worked well on the front face of the abutment.  But not on the back of the abutment.  Any Ideas what could be going wrong.  I have check all the settings and everything seems good except for the location of the rebar is coming in wrong.  It is like the rebar is filling the shape selected but from the Front View of the MicroStation View.  The shape being used is an associative shape but even if drop the association it still does the same thing.

  • OK I see you used the single rebar to apply the rebar to a graphical shape and it seemed to draw the rebar in the proper plane.  Then you saved the rebar setup, then deleted the bars and reapplied the bars to the associative offset shape and they remained in the plane of the face.  This is did not work for me.  The bars placed on the graphical shape worked fine as did yours but when I then reapply the bars to the associative offset shape the bars are drawn in the incorrect plane.  Did you change your ACS to make this work.  There was a visible ACS that appear to lineup with the skewed wall, I did not see this edit made in the video.  It a custom ACS require for concrete faces that are angled?
