Is there a defalt relationship between the red and green axes(sp?) and the compass directions? North is all I need to know, actually

I'm not sure what direction is north when importing into Google Earth. When using the TF Rubies, North is the positive red axis. This only matters on automatically generated shop drawings, where the faces and ends of the timber get their NSEWTB labels. It's also really easy to change your existing model, just do a select all, group it, rotate the group, and then explode ("ungroup") it. CB.
