This command will twist the screen orientation to where something
other than the north
direction is toward the top of the screen/drawing. It does not do a
coordinate rotation, the
drawing coordinates remain unchanged. Use commands on the *Points*
menu,
such as
Rotate Points and Translate Points, if you want to do a
coordinate rotation or translation.
This routine prompts for the twist angle then adjusts the screen and cross-hairs to that angle. This is a modification of AutoCAD's DVIEW command. The twist angle is always measured counterclockwise with 0 degrees being to the east/right.
