New to 3d mode. Just a quick question, how come when i go to draw a cylinder, i can only draw it face down, ie on the y axis. It wont let me draw it side on. also when i go to move object, copy objects etc etc, it wont let me move/copy them up or down, just sideways.

 

I wondered if there was a switch or option to toggle on or off that governed the polar settings etc.

 

Cheers-dave:oops:

You have to reorient the UCS to work in the Z direction. You do know how to manipulate it right?

Hey, ignore last comment, i got it to work:)

For some reason, the tutorials arent in order. They asked me to creat a pump housing "as shown", but never explained how to change the ucs. Never mind, im on my way now. Ill give you guys a shout if i have any further problems.

Cheers again - Dave
