Objects misplaced while drawing in different views?

Drawing a object in SW view for example is not placed correctly when switching to another view. Its out far away from where it was showing in the previous view. I can move the object but how do I keep from doing this to begin with ?

@chriscK8R5W ,

Post a sample.

Start with having the UCS set to World. Also, make sure to draw the object on the same or common plane (x,y,z), while being attentive of your current Object Snaps.

Take a look at these links:

this first photo was drawn in front view with the UCS set to the face . Looking at it in SE ISO the lines were placed far behind the face.

@chriscK8R5W It's not enough to just rotate your UCS, try these tutorials
