Sorry for leaving last night. The wife said it was time for bed I have uploaded the drawing as a .dwg as directed. This is the tile layout for the shower. Thanks again for your help.

Both nestly and JD have suggested the commandline entry to fix your visualstyle, as per my earlier suggestion, if you are in classic mode, as I am, and you have your VISUALSTLE toolbar available you can click on the 2D Wireframe icon.
Either of these approaches will send your cursor axii indicators back to your default 2D appearance, probably just the X & Y, white on black background.

Were you able to recover the 3D which you had done from your .bak file?
If not, you can very quickly recreate it all using PRESSPULL for instance, probably the easiest of the numerous different commands available. You would probably enjoy using the FILLET command to contour the edges of the tile, to better represent it in 3D.
Should only take a few minutes to do one each of the tiles and then COPY or ARRAY them into compliance with your master plan.
I noticed that you didn't center your floor tile layout in the pan, and are those meant to be 2'x 2' tiles?
The wall graphic looks real nice, although I might make each wall symmetrical on the centerline, but I'm like that, compulsive.

Thank you all very much for your help and support through these trying time. Seriously, I really do appreciate your help. I did not know what an ARRAY was so I spent a few hours playing around with it and it sure would of made my original dwg easier. I got the dwg back to the 2D wire frame and then saved a different copy to learn the 3D functions. This web site is a God sent, I would have reverted back to the straight edge and pencil, not that a bad thing. As I find the time I'll be going through the tutorials . Thanks again!
Best,
Mark
