vla-put-plotrotation not working

[andkal]

Hello
Im having a problem with the   vla-put-plotrotation   function. The code changes the "PlotRotation" property succesfully but the paper oritentation doesn't change in the screen. Deos any body know the reason? Regeneratng the view doesn't help.

(setq layout_ename (cdr(assoc -1 (dictsearch(cdr(assoc -1(dictsearch(namedobjdict)"ACAD_LAYOUT"))) (getvar "ctab")))))
(vla-put-plotrotation (vlax-ename->vla-object layout_ename) 0) ; SETS PLOT ROTATION:  0 - horisontal,  1-vertical

@andkal hi,

maybe a regen is missing after?

Hi
vla-regen doesnt help, redraw doesnt help and  vla-refreshplotdeviceinfo doesnt'help.
Although the property is changed correctly, I don't see the change in the Page Setup Manager too.

Portrait:

(vla-put-PlotRotation (vlax-ename->vla-object layout_ename) ac0degrees)(command"_.Regen")

Landscape:

(vla-put-PlotRotation (vlax-ename->vla-object layout_ename) ac90degrees)(command"_.Regen")

Thanks pauli, your code works.
Actually it was not he case of command"_.Regen" or vla - regen  nor  ac0degrees or 1 or 0.
My code just didnt show the results becouse i changed the vertical (in its dimmensions) paper to already vertical paper.
I wrongly understood that the paper size is defined as "portrait" or "landscape" whereas it is just "not rotated" by default.
So I noticed that the Plotrotation property set to 1 means rotated, and 0 -not rotated.
