Viewport rotation to be reflected in attributed block

[Anonymous]

I need to show that by how much degree I have rotated viewport, and such degree value to be reflected in attributed block say , North arrow should take exact rotation angle by which Viewport is rotated. This will confirm that on print out of any drawings, North will be exactly rotated as view have rotated Viewport for different plan view settings.

Nothing fancy needed for this.  Put the north arrow in model space and it will rotate along with the viewport.

Hi Libbya,

Thanks for your reply.

I am aware of what you are talking about this. But irrespective of scale of viewport, if we need to put North block on Sheet file only, then how we will be able to understand from prints that it is rotated correctly.

If you want it the same size regardless of viewport scale, then make it an annotative block.  In AutoCAD, there is not any way to make a dynamic block rotate based on the rotation of the viewport.  In fact, there is not any way to make a dynamic BLOCK rotate based on any property of any object outside of the block itself.
