Default Tire Rotation - straight or diagonal?

I am wondering what is good practice on tire rotation. There are number of options. Front to rear; straight or diagonal. Rotate clockwise or anticlockwise.

Thanks for your input.

I do front to rear for the stock set simply because I'm used to directional tires. Both of my winter sets are directional, so no options there.

I believe all 3rd gen are front to rear, same side only. For my 2004, I did five tire rotation as the spare was a full size. See manual.
