Spaj Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 i got a drawing with its UCS rotated , when trying to xref or copy@paste objects from it to another drawing i see that it respects to hosting UCS. is there a way to copy UCS from drawing to drawing? Is it not possible to save the current UCS as a named UCS and save/copy from the .DWG with the World UCS active? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nestly Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 A bit of a process but maybe draw a polyline from 0.0.0 to 0,100,0 in the source drawing, Temporarily switch to WCS, then COPYBASE the PLINE from 0,0,0 into the destination drawing. UCS > Object then name the new UCS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobDraw Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 When I copy/paste from one drawing to another I set the UCS in both to World and then use UCS Previous to switch the UCS back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
