3D View orientation - can it be changed?

[donnia.tabor-hanson]

So they have their project on True North but want the 3D view to come in by Project North not True North so they can take advantage of the View Cuge with Front, Right, etc and it look orthogonal. 

Can this be done?

Thanks,

In a 3D top view, the red arrow should be Project North, letter N is True North.  Did you rotate project North?

Here is an example of my project

They can get the plan views oriented just fine. They want the 3D view to be squared up so that the "Front" of the view cube will take them square on one side and not on a corner which it shows now. 

This is strictly about the 3D view.

What I show you is a 3D top view.

[donnia.tabor-hanson]

Yes, and the plan is skewed so that if you go to the cube "Front" view, you would see the prominent souther corner of the building and the two side off that corner. They would like to see perpendicularly to the one long side of the building instead in that cube "Front" view.

I found the answer. By having an elevation that is named, I can reorient the "Front" of the cube to be set to one of the elevations.
