Rotate Lighting fixture with asymmetrical IES data

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a problem with a lighting fixture. It is a fixture placed at the ceiling where lighting is directed towards the wall. To be used lighting up blackboards and so on. I have tried almost everything but if I rotate the lighting fixture the light still goes in the old (1.) direction. The symbol of the light is turned as expected but lights in renderings doesn't change at all. 

If I test with a symmetric IES file it works just fine.

One thing I have noticed is that when rotated In plan view (around z-axis) it seems like the lighting is rotated around x or y-axis as well.

If I tilt the IES file it is even worse.

Has anyone had the same experience and maybe found a solution.
