The Beta Angle of a SCTN defines the rotation around its ZU axis. The effect of changes to the Beta Angle are shown in the diagram below.

In this diagram the Justification Line is set to TOAX. Modifying the Beta Angle rotates the section around its ZU axis defined by the Justification Line.
Selecting Orientate > Beta Angle from the main menu toolbar allows you to modify the Beta Angle in positive or negative increments of 90 degrees from the sub-menu.
