Align crosshairs to ucs


Recommended Posts

Posted

Usually clicking world for the view will bring the crosshairs back to normal (aligned with the usc) right now Y is straight up and X is to the right but my cross hairs are at an angle. I attached a pic to clairfy. How do i get my cross hairs to align

After playing with the different view buttons and the find/replace command i got the cross hairs the right way, unfortunately this means i cant post the dwg and next time it happens i have no idea what set of commands fixed the problem.

I detached all the xrefs and the angle the remaining stuff (text and linework) is the correct angle but the cross hairs should match the UCS

If you go into the units setting, the base angle has been set to 106 degrees. If you set that back to one of the more normal directions i.e. East, then set SNAPANG to 0, and there you are. :D

Ahhh! I never thought to check the base angle (since the SNAPANG was already 0)

Excellent.

??It seems the 'snapang' command is useless,because everything he can do seemingly can also be done by setting 'angbase'?

Setting angbase does not rotate my crosshairs. Am I doing this wrongly :?
