With a Visio document, it's (still) easy to zoom and pan within the page. But how do you rotate the view? That is, look at it from a different side — not change the drawing itself, just like zooming doesn't change the shapes but just the way you look at them in the window.
BTW, selecting all and rotating the shapes as a group does not work because of shapes that are specific to horiz or vertical placement; in particular the dimension line labeling.
