While working in a Rotate Spread View (90º CW) the X and Y location of the Ruler Guides will be no longer reliable until you Clear the Rotation.
Sounds like a Bug or needs to be added in a update!

They look reliable to me. The absolute coordinates don't change because you are just rotating the spread VIEW, not any positioning. If you rotate 90 degrees, the y ruler will now be horizontal and the x ruler will be vertical, but the zero point will remain in the same position on the page.

That isn't to say it takes some getting used to. :)

So far so clear.
But when you change the position of the Ruler it does not chance the X/Y location...

I'm not sure what you mean. Any way a screen shot would clarify things?

@Peter
Rotate Spread View and change the position of the Ruler Guide. The X or Y location will maintain the same coordination as it was before. InDesign will not show the official coordination until you Clear the Rotation...
