This helped a lot. I'm doing zoomed details of typical arrangements of items in a couple of hundred rooms that are at random angles. Pick rooms to pull the typicals from, make rectangular callouts around the items, rotate the callouts to square them to the items, put the callouts as typicals on another sheet, then hide the callouts on the original sheets. Presto!
This all makes sense, but my issue is when I place the rotated plan on a sheet directly below the corresponding elevation, my elevation callout tag in the plan view has rotated text and if I try to rotate the callout, obviously the elevation changes. Any thoughts on how to fix my predicament?
OK. But how do you rotate it if you don't have an easy angle like 45 degrees? What if a wall is like 20.0001200820328308.........degrees? How do you rotate to be dead accurate then?
If you do not have an accurate or specific angle to work with, I tend to draw a quick line, I know has the angle I need or I at least know is at a 0 or 90 degree angle to start with. Might have to rotate things twice to get what you want.

Yes unfortunately, the annotations will rotate as well. I would try copying them before then rotating the view and pasting the annotations back.
how can we rotate section?
Super Bro
Thanks, man!

VERY IMPORTANT !!! YOUR VIEW NEEDS TO BE IN PROJECT NORTH TO BE ABLE TO ROTATE THE VIEWPORT !!!
You are correct!
this makes no sense, Revit is making me even more dumb.
I dont disagree with you haha!
