Parallel snap with Civil horizontal line

Have Plan Readability Recognize Sheet Orientation

The existing Annotation settings offer a plan readability setting to invert text if it would otherwise appear upside down. This appears to be tied to design file orientation. For this to really be useful, it needs to function according to the fina...
