Abstract: A method includes presenting a computer-aided design (CAD) model via a graphical-user-interface (GUI) on a display, in a first orientation view; presenting one or more PMI objects oriented towards a first normal vector associated with the first orientation view, having a first orientation; identifying a second orientation view of the CAD model; calculating a second normal vector associated with the second orientation view; identifying the one or more PMI objects oriented towards the first normal vector; and orienting the identified one or more PMI objects towards the second normal vector, such that the identified one or more PMI objects are aligned in the second orientation view, having a second orientation.
