Changing Sketch Origin

How do I change the origin of the sketch on the attached .ipt?  If you open the .ipt and click on the FRONT tab of the view box, you can see that sketch 2 is showing face forwards (FRONT), where I want it to be.  If you double click Sketch 2 you wind up seeing it upside down.  How do I change this so it stays facing the same direction when I go to edit it?

I think this is what your asking about ... Go to Options ... Sketch Tab and see if the Look at Sketch Plane on Sketch Creation is Checked ... if so uncheck it and try the model now

Thanks.  That worked.  Is there a way that the sketch plane can position so I am looking at the sketch I clicked on?  Say I click on the front view, I'd like it to look at the front view so I can work on the sketch without it being skewed.

Look At (on the Nav Bar) or Page Up (keyboard) and then click a sketch element

I thought I remembered this doing it by itself when I clicked the sketch.

I'm pretty sure it's controlled by Ap Option > Sketch >Look at sketch oh creation and edit.
