Rectangle Length & Width in Worksheets


Recommended Posts

I have a bunch of rectangles in a document that are all rotated at different angles. I have a worksheet that is databasing all those rectangles and returning their length, width, and area. However, the length and width being returned are not their "true" length & width (ie their dimensions when not rotated at all), but rather what appear to be dimensions giving length and width when rotated (a 7'x15' rectangle is returning as 6'-6 3/16 x 19'-9 11/16").

If I orient my view so what some rectangles are rotated zero degrees those rectangles will return a "true" number. 

 

Is there a way to force my worksheet to look at the rectangle in its zero degrees orientation regardless of how my view is currently rotated?
