Hi all
I have problem when I want to rotate my vector data (rotate to 14 degree from azimuth). I have polygon with the total amount around 102,000 (each polygon have size about 9 m x 15 m). I have tried to rotate all the polygon by using Rotate Tools but it seems like my laptop (i5 with 8GB RAM) cannot handle that operation.
Even today, I let the operation continue for 5 hours and not finished yet! I have tried this up to 4 times. I also have tried to use rotate manually by using mouse or by input the rotate degree (by pressing 'A' and input the degree number).
Is there any way to solve my problem?

Of course this begs the question... why do you need to rotate them? It is hard to fathom that you didn't notice that they were at the wrong angle to begin with. Perhaps rotating the north arrow isn't simple enough? In any event, you could
Hi Dan Patterson
Thank you for your answer. Yes, I need to rotate them in certain degree because at first I only can create them (by fishnet) in a straight shape (zero azimuth). I tried to search in environment menu when I was creating fishnet and found nothing related to degree rotation number.
I don't think that rotating north arrow will solve my problem because in fact the shape still in zero azimuth.
Finally, I can solve my problem
I used extension geowizard from ian-ko (http://www.ian-ko.com). His tool allow us to rotate feature with custom azimuth number based on our need.
Cheers..
welll if you are slightly adept at handling code, you can use the example in here

Hi Dan, many thanks for the information! It will be very useful for me..
