Aligning ortho axis with rectangular geometry

I’m having issues on Safari too – I had to reload the page numerous times before I could watch it.

A bit offtopic, but when I upload a video to Dropbox and copy the link here, it is going to display an empty video box which won’t play, so I have to insert the URL as a hyperlink (like this) to make sure it can be accessed. (Usually my screen captures are way too big to fit the file limit here.)

Hi all.

Thank you for the input. Below is an image of the Modeling Aids window.

I set this to 40.52 degrees because that is what the rectangular geometry is rotated from x,y being left right and up down. I thought that this is what I should edit rather than rotating the CPlane.

I put 90° in here and also in the OrthoAngle box and it NOW WORKS PERFECT!!! Lines now track on x,y at 90° from one another. What a relief!

Your help has been wonderful. I sincerely appreciate it! Below is a shot of it working perfectly.

Thank you all again!

Glad you got it worked out. One other thing you might want to look at is Universal CPlanes vs Standard CPlanes (set in Options>Modeling Aids). with Universal CPlanes set, if you set a custom CPlane in the Perspective viewport to align with your model, the other views - Front, Top, Right, etc. will automatically align to that plane, giving you true views of the object. Takes some getting used to, but might be useful for you in this case.

Sounds good. Thanks again!
