AutoCAD - Toggling axis display

Anonymous — Tue, 25 Oct 2022 19:31:43 GMT

So when I setup my bars when I started almost 2 months ago, I apparently also turned off the display for the axis (I think its default place is in the lower left corner of your model space screen). I find it quite helpful since I switch between views often. How do I turn it back on, and can I move it? I'm running 2018 with the latest updates.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Anonymous,

Are you referring to the UCS icon? Try the UCSICON command to see if that restores what you are looking for.

I used the command and turned it on, but I'm not seeing it anywhere on my screen. I'm currently reading through the command options on the help link provided to see if I can find a way to have the UCS display in the corner of my screen (in model space).

Hi @Anonymous,

What is your Visual Style set to?

And, to make sure I am understanding what you are trying to restore, I have my UCSICON shown in the image below.

I was able to turn it on, apparently the UCS2DDISPLAYSETTING command was set to off, I turned it on and set the properties back to 3D and its right where I want it to be. Thanks for the help.
