The angle property is irreversible - is there any way to change this behaviour?

[brisid.isufi]

When I change the angle of a straight steel beam, the beam is rotated accordingly. For the sake of simplicity, say I specified an angle of 15 degrees. When I reopen the edit window, the angle field returns to zero, but the profile remains rotated. Is seems that the angle is not a property after all, but it is an irreversible command that applies a transformation to the beam. If I want the beam to go back to the initial state, I have to specify an angle of -15 degrees for this example. Is this a bug or is this considered a feature of Advance Steel? Please see the figure below.

Hi @brisid.isufi ,

it's standard behavior - Advance Steel doesn't remember this setting here ... you can note the rotation value for yourself, e.g. in user attributes, for later cases

Thanks. I hope this is improved in the future.
