<p>Hi Marc</p>
<p>Usually the rotation etc. is done either to true north or at 90° to this, so I would test by adding 90 to the rotation expression in the labels to see whether this works.</p>
<p>Perhaps you could store everything inside a geopackage rather, similar to a CAD file, although yes, they are not all linked. You could then do table join if you wanted to, but probably unnecessary. You can emulate the CAD colours by having a CSV table of RGB colours, which relate to the CAD colour names and which then you can link to the attributes and use the RGB in your colour expression and in the same way as well as line type. You can also emulate the line thickness by using the attribute in the line layer.</p>
<p>Hopefully this helps.</p>

<p class="v1MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">Hi,</span></p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">I’m facing the following issue: I imported the sewer network from a DXF file, along with the corresponding labels. However, the channel geometries and the labels are stored in separate layers and are not linked to each other. Although the attribute table of the label layer contains a “Rotation” field, QGIS still displays the text horizontally by default.</span></p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">In the layer properties, under “Placement,” you can specify a rotation angle—I've tried that, but the label orientations are still not correct. I suspect that the reference point of the labels was set arbitrarily during the import, which prevents the rotation from being applied properly.</span></p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">My goal is to reproduce the same label layout as in the original DXF file.<br />Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?</span></p>
