Viedwcube rotation

[blowout]

Using World UCS from start of new drawing. all of a sudden i notice the viewcube is 90 degrees  out of rotation. is there a fix to get it back to where it should be?

[john.laidler]

Verify the viewcube is set to WCS, with the below option.

[blowout]

Thanx for the swift respons jclaider! But yes it is set to WCS.

In AutoCAD type DVIEW, (hit ENTER twice), then TW.  Reset to 0.

[blowout]

no go, but i did jujst copy the elements in ths model and paste to a new drawing, used the design center to drag and drop the layout tabs and now its okay. still am curious as to why this happened.

[john.laidler]

The DVIEW process usually works, I replicated it on my AutoCAD.

Using the TWIST option rotates the viewcube.  Did the viewcube rotate at all?

[blowout]

it didnt budge. I uploded the file. when open the Viewcube north should be screen right

[john.laidler]

Is this what you wanted?  (see attached)

[blowout]

no, the cube is still 90 deg. ouf rotation clockwise.

[john.laidler]

You want N to be pointing to the right?

[blowout]

should be down in that shot

[john.laidler]

Try this procedure:

1.)  Rotate the Viewcube to your desired orientation.

2.)  Select to open up the Viewcube Options

3.)  Select to set the current view to be the HOME view.

[blowout]

that rotates the entire model

[john.laidler]

Then you'll have to rotate the model area to how you want it, in the orientation you want it.

[blowout]

will the odel rotation change coordinates of the model elements?

[john.laidler · Accepted solution]

Yes it will change the model coordinates.  Be sure to rotate around the origin point, or the point that needs to be the same.

(Example, rotate with 0,0,0 as your base point.)
