For hinged panels in doors and windows displayed in 3D, Elevation or Section views, you can control the orientation of the opening lines so as to point toward either the hinged or the opening side.

From the Document menu choose Set Model View > Model View Options to bring up the Model View Options dialog.

Open the Options for GDL Objects tab. You’ll see checkboxes for displaying the opening ines for doors and windows, and whether the lines should be dashed or solid on eithe side of the opening panel.

Set the Line Orientation to either Handle (if the arrow should point towards the handle) or Hinges.
