(OP)
How do I make solidworks not rotate the view one-eighty, from the view that I orginally want to draw on, I really dislike using the alt and right arrow keys to draw on the orginal view that I have picked?

The catch to using this tool is that there must be some geometry in the sketch, and no external relations present to rotate it.

I've used what Gildashard mentions above mostly cause I find it easier to sketch a point and hit rotate if I was modeling quickly, because you can fix it after the fact more easily than canceling the sketch and repicking references.
