You are able to rotate takeoff or the plan behind the takeoff using the tools on the Rotate Toolbar. All the buttons on the Rotate Takeoff and Plan Toolbar are duplicated on the Takeoff Window Context Menus, see Related Articles for more information.
You can rotate the Plan clockwise in 180 degree increments.
You can Rotate and Spin any degree you like using the Rotate Control (see Related Articles).
You can flip Takeoff vertically or horizontally.
| Button | Description | What it does/How it is used... |
|---|---|---|
 | Rotate Plan | Rotates the current Plan (not the takeoff) in 180u00b0 increments. The plan can be rotated only in 180u00b0 increments to avoid takeoff falling off the Page when it is rotated from landscape to portrait or vice versa. |
 | Rotate Takeoff | Activates the Rotation Control so you can rotate all selected takeoff object(s) around the center axis of a square containing the selected object(s). |
 | Spin Takeoff | Activates the Spin Control so you can rotate each selected piece of takeoff around its individual center axis. |
 | Flip Takeoff (Horizontally) | Flips all selected takeoff object(s) horizontally along the vertical axis of a square containing the object(s). |
 | Flip Takeoff (Vertically) | Flips all selected takeoff object(s) vertically along the horizontal axis of a square containing the object(s). |
At the bottom of the Takeoff Window on the Revision and Set Navigation Toolbar are controls for rotating takeoff and the underlying plan together in 90 degree increments. This is allowed because when the Plan and takeoff (and some annotation) are rotated together the orientation of both are the same so there is no chance that a piece of takeoff or directional annotation would fall outside the Page's boundaries.
