Change of plate UCS ?

[Anonymous]

Is it possible to change the UCS of a plate in ASD 2012 ?

Dynamic UCS from Tools?

What exaclty change you mean?

Well , every plate has its own coordinate system . I want to change this system for existing plates .

[Jakub.Brozonowicz]

No way to do that.

This LCS is integrated with sizes.

You determine it during insertion.

After that if you want to rotate only LCS two actions have to be made:

1. replace W with L size
2. rotate the plate around local 0,0.

Of course it isn't perfect solution itself.

Yes , I did something similar . I set in the settings the local plate axes to be shown , and then made new plate with the same contour until I got the axes I need . I just wished there wes some way to do this automatically .

As mentioned before, unfortunately no.
