Pivot Point Rotate by Bearing

This command allows you to rotate the selected entities from the drawing. The rotation angle is defined by the difference between a reference line and an entered bearing or azimuth. The reference line is defined by two points that can be picked on the screen or entered by point number.

Prompts

Select entities to rotate.
Select objects: select the entities

Reference Bearing N 44d31'1" E The program then displays the reference bearing defined by the two points selected.
Azimuth/<Bearing (Qdd.mmss)>: 245.3030 Enter an A to input an Azimuth or enter the bearing. The above response is a bearing of South 45 degrees, 30 minutes, and 30 seconds East. The program then rotates the database to the new bearing.
Update viewports [Yes/<No>]? press Enter. This option rotates all the viewports in all the layouts of the drawing.

If Carlson Points are selected the program warns:

Use CooRDinate File Utilities menu, Update CRD from Drawing.
This warning applies if the points entities are not linked to the CRD file. This link option is set in the Configure command.
