castagnaccio Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Hello everyone , following this graphical representation: I was wondering if there is a method in autocad to know the orientation of the red surface inside the 3rd cube (cube nr. 1 and 2 are examples). The orientation is dip direction and dip of the surface the considering the Y axis as the Nord (see images below). Here is also the dwg file: cadtu.dwg ps: sorry for my English Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEANT Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 One way would be to draw a line normal to that face. Set a UCS aligned to the face, then create a line from 0,0,0 to 0,0,100. That line can then be dimension via its angular displacement from the two pertinent directions. cadtu_withNormal.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
