SYMPTOMS
When you enable page rotation in Microsoft Visio and rotate a drawing, you may experience unexpected shape orientation when you use the following shapes from the Walls, Doors and Windows stencil
 * Wall
 * Curved Wall
 * Controller Dimension
 * Callout
 * Room Measurement

or the following shapes from the Walls, Shell and Structure stencil

 * Exterior Wall

MORE INFORMATION
When you rotate a page, existing shapes and guides rotate with it. In addition, there are some smart shapes that do not orient themselves as expected when you place them on a rotated page. Rather than dropping onto the page as they appear in the stencil, these shapes orient themselves with respect to the page rotation.

For more information about about how to enable page rotation, type Page Rotation in the Ask a question box or the Answer Wizard, and then press ENTER to view the topics.
