This is going to be a long explanation. First, what I found is that view by face goes back to how the face was created. In the first image below, the part was drawn at 45° off of vertical in the workplane.

The view by face shows the part at 45°.

I selected the face, and moved the face by rotation 45°. Then view by face shows the part in the vertical orientation. This is a lot of work that really does not buy much, unless you truly need the face shown in that orientation.
