Figured out my issue!

I just added 270 degrees to the rotation angle to get the rotation to work. To fix the actual view plane location, (thanks to [this post](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/match-a-sectionview-alignment-to-a-model-line/6742/10)) I figured out I need to move another element called “Element”, so to do that I took the SectionView element, got its ID, subtracted 1 from it, and got the element from that ID, and moved that as well.

Works perfectly now!
