Rotated view

Am i missing something or does the rotated view have problems with guideline management.

1. Guideline locks at 0 and 90 degrees end up being set for both the original and new rotated angle. Very annoying if you only rotate 1.2 or something insignificant. This in my view defeats one of the main purposes of the rotated view as it was mean to reduce drafting errors with people drawing at funny angles. We have ended up back where we started.

2. Incremental guidelines are set at the non-rotated view (ie the original view) rather than the new rotated view. They should be set to the new rotated view.

I haven't tried this myself yet, but have you checked the Work Environment settings for guidelines and constraints?

I have had a look but it seems to only update if i put a active gide line at the new rotated angle or if i rotate the grids to the new rotated view then it will work.
