CIRCULAR BEND/ELBOW - HOW TO CHANGE UCS?

Hi,

I am very new to 3d.

Now i am doing a simple circular bend/elbow with given below values.

It is a round bar extruded along a circular path.

start point = -100.00,100.00,0.00

center point = 100.00,100.00,0.00

end point = 100.00,-100.00,0.00

radius of cross section=6


I defined a 3dpoints collection having start, center and endpoint of extrusion path.

now i want to define cross-section of path(i.e, the circle of radius 6).

For this, how can i change UCS?

Any hint or guidence?

 

Thanks & regards,
G

Thanks & Regards,
G

Back when I used to use LSP, and VBA, I had to manipulate the UCS all over the place to get things drawn correctly, but now with the managed API you should transform the object after creation, instead of changing the coordinate system, or in the case of a Circle, you can supply the appropriate Normal Vector to the constructor.
