Hello all,
I've got a strange problem with my ViewCube. My screen is showing the world ordinate system as it should in the standard plan view ( X horizontal,Y vertical); however, my ViewCube is skewed to the right about 30° (top view and rotated about 30° right). It is set to orient to the current UCS and the current UCS Is World. If I use the ViewCube to change the setting and orient it as top view orthogonal (north straight up) my view (UCS World) gets twisted left by about (not exactly) 30°.
Am I missing something or is this abnormal ViewCube behavior?
I really don't need the ViewCube and usually turn it off but this just bugs me. Does anyone have any ideas about what's causing this or how to fix it? T
Thank you. Yet another feature that I have no use for so I never learned anything about it. It seems to me that such features should be off by default rather than on. GEOMARKERVISIBILITY=0 is a setting I had to add to my Acaddoc.lsp file. All they do is force those that will not use them to find a way to disable them or turn them off. Since no one here uses this, how and why it got set to a skewed angle baffles me. It has nothing to do with reality for the site.
Your signature line is cut off so I don't know if it shows which version of C3D you are using. I know that if I open a drawing in C3D2013 in which I've set a coordinate system in C3D2012, the North direction, and sometimes the UP direction, get randomly changed. I must go in and change them back to 0 & Z+ every time. One reason I'm still using 2012.

Is there a command line equivalent so that this can be incorporated into acaddoc.lsp??
I think it may have arisen for me by migrating my template from 2012 i.e open up my dwt and save as 2013 version..!!!
Does this setting actually affect anything coordinate wise etc?

There might be something that can be done via lisp, will have to look into that. I don't think it affects C3D at all, but I could be wrong.
How do you make the change stay. Everytime I save the file the numbers change back???
Hi Jeff
Do you know how to resolve this issue in 2016 as the GEOGRAPHICLOCATION no longer pulls up that dialog box but asks for location to be set from Map or File?
Hello Jeff,
I am using Map 3d 2015. When you put in geographiclocation command. The same dialog box does not come up anymore. Can you tell me how to fix the skewed viewcube now?
Try GEOREMOVE command. It worked for me.. I am using Autocad Map 3D 2015...
