Horizontal Alignment Stationing Display [View Independent]

Hi all,

I am using InRoads Suite V8i SS2 v08.11.07.566. I have an alignment that I am trying to annotate the stationing. I set up my preferences and when I hit apply the behavior is strange. I've attached images to help. I would like the stationing to be displayed to be able to read left to right and parallel to the baseline and offset. 

Would appreciate help!

Regards,

Christina
