Rotating question.

Good morning everyone,  I have a question.  I have ran into the same issue in the past but can't remember what the fix was for it.   I have a snip it above the drawing.  I'm trying to rotate the snip it but it isn't rotating for some reason.  I have attached a copy of the original drawing.  

 

thanks for any help

There was no other fix, than using another objecttype, EDIT: (or you edit (rotate) your OLE content outside of AutoCAD)

You can attach an image and you can rotate this reference, which is showing the image file content.

Before we upgraded our laptops to Win 11,  We had Win 10.  I was able to rotate a snipit no issues.

Changing operating systems does not change how the reinstalled same year version AutoCAD program works: you probably forgot how you did it exactly (your previous post is an example, 2022 I believe?), or this is not the same object type or situation or something yet to be defined, or you had a 3rd party add-on that never made it with the new OS migration reinstall.

 

If you remember where, find an old drawing that you did this in and try it there too: remember OLEs and attached Images and XREFs all behave different.

 

And as a reminder: did you ever confirm you have the 2022.1.3 installed Update yet? ABOUT command will confirm what you have installed. If not, get it from your Autodesk Account Page here https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/updates
Restart your PC afterwards.

As already suggested you could rotate the image outside of AutoCAD but here's a crazy approach.  Make a material from the image and assign it to a plane which you can rotate.  Of course, you'll need to have the Realistic visual style active to see it.😁
