drawing view alignment
So I have created a model, now I want to add a layout with drawing views. But when I add the view to the layout they are not the perpendicular elevations I would expect. I assume the drawing views are generated with reference to UCS/WCS and some how my model is not quite aligned to the UCS/WCS used for the views. But I can seem to align the model my efforts seem to have no effect.
How can I set either the model or drawing view back into alignment with the other?
DWG attached for reference.

As you surmise, your panel is tilted ever so slightly. See attached PDF. To realign it to the WCS I added a flat plate beneath it, applied a "fix" constraint to that plate, and then a coincident constraint between the top face of the plate and the bottom edge of the panel, also attached.
Why yes, I am recently retired. In my defense, I just took a pretty good loaf of scratch-made bread out of the oven, so I don't spend all day on the 'net. ;-)

Thank you again Richard, a simple and obvious solution now you have presented it. I guess todays lesson from this is I should have fixed the first solid on creation to anchor it to the WCS, then add and constrain the other features.
Hope you enjoyed the bread, which sound like a great retirement endeavor.
All the best
