Parameter 57 COMMON SWITCH 1 the one labelled ENA ROT & SC should be a 1 for Rotation and Scaling to be enabled. If it is a 0 you do not have rotation.
This is an option that needs a code number to activate but I don't know the cost.
I have been trying to rotate a G150 pocket using G68 and it don't seem to
work. Is there a setting I need to change or some other trick to make it work

An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.
Edit
I don't think it is possible. I have been messing around with irregular shapes with islands and I can see that it would be impossible to rotate all the cut paths needed to do these weird shapes with islands.
Thanks for looking anyway.
