We present a statistical study of the filamentary structure orientation in the CO emission observations obtained in the Milky WayImaging Scroll Painting survey in the range 25.8°<l<49.7°, |b|≤1.25°, and -100<v_LSR<135km/s. We found that most of the filamentary structures in the ¹²CO and ¹³CO emission do not show a global preferential orientation either parallel or perpendicular to the Galactic plane. However, we found ranges in Galactic longitude and radial velocity where the ¹²CO and ¹³CO filamentary structures are parallel to the Galactic plane. These preferential orientations are different from those found for the HI emission. We consider this an indication that the molecular structures do not simply inherit these properties from parental atomic clouds.Instead, they are shaped by local physical conditions, such as stellar feedback, magnetic fields, and Galactic spiral shocks.
