[Motor Measurement Label adjustment]

  Hello smart people of Vectorworks....is it possible to have the motor measurement labels automatically switch directions?  When currently applied all arrows point in one direction.  Although in most parts of the entertainment industry, we use Stage left and Stage right.  Can the arrows point in the direction of the measurement from the stage perspective??

 

  Thanks for your time....
