Rotate scope box

Is it possible to rotate scope box 0.122 degrees? I try rotating the scope box to align with my grid. But when I model a wall using the scope box, the wall does not align to grid. Seem like the scope box cannot to rotated 0.122 degree. Even if i try to align to a geometry, it doesn't work. Any solution to this?

No issue here.  After rotate the scope box, did you assign it to the view?

In the example below, grid 2 is not rotated, grid 1 and scope box 1 is rotated 0.122 degree.

 

By the way, you only need the rotated scope box if you need to rotate the entire view.  If the intent is to align a few walls with a rotated grid, then draw the walls by pickling the grid then offset / move them.

Another way is turning on Work plane and rotate it 0.122 degree.  Then you can draw walls at the 0.122 degree angle.

0.122 degrees?  Why would you have a grid skewed 0.122 degrees from orthogonal?  That sounds very strange.  Do you mind me asking?

Yes, I did assign it to view. But when I model the wall in this scope box view selected, the wall still does not align to the grid.

It is because architect want the building to be parallel to the boundary line which is shewed at this angle.

HUH?   Are you sure that's what the Architect meant?  What do you mean by "Boundary Line"?  Property Line?

What happens when you place Wall via Pick Lines method and picking the Grid Line?
