    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:

    1. replace W with L size
    2. 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 .
