No way to do that.
This LCS is integrated with sizes.
You determine it during insertion.
After that if you want to rotate only LCS two actions have to be made:
- replace W with L size
- rotate the plate around local 0,0.
Of course it isn't perfect solution itself.

Yes , I did something similar . I set in the settings the local plate axes to be shown , and then made new plate with the same contour until I got the axes I need . I just wished there wes some way to do this automatically .
