Align UCS in NAVIS

I would like to know if I can rotate the UCS in Navisworks Manage 2013 to plan north so when I move an object through units and transform along a single axis I dont have to use trig to figure the exact distance. Any help either way would be great. 

 

Thank you.

Ideally Navisworks should have an Align with object/face for the gizmo, there is a Look At and you can then "try" and reposition the gizmo to the correct location and rotation, but the way Autodesk have developed the gizmo tools in Navisworks is very poor, you can move/snap to the correct location but then when you want to rotate it resets the position and vice versa. Basic functionality that's missing!

"Ideally Navisworks should have an Align with object/face for the gizmo" Agreed! A much needed feature on many projects.

 

Probably wasting my time, however, I sent this request to Autodesk via product feedback.

Several time we predefine severals UCS in Autocad Drawings that we hope can be used when export the dWG to NAviswork

Just wondering if this functionality has been added to Navisworks, hard to believe it isn't one of the first functions included.
