You might need to expand that a little bit. I'm not sure what you mean.

 

Do you want to draw at a particular angle?

Do you want to rotate your User Coordinate System?

Do you want to change the snap angle?

 

To draw a line at a particular angle you can simply type your input at the command prompt.

LINE[Enter]

[Pick a point or type on in]

@5<30[Enter]

 

the @ means relative to the last point you selected

The 5 is the distance in whatever your drawing units are

the < means ANGLE of

30 is the angle in degrees. (Counter Clockwise from 0 which is along the positive X axis

 

 

To Rotate your UCS you can simply use the NAVVCUBE in the upper right corner to select one of the predefined faces or iso views.

Or you could follow the prompts in the UCS command and create a NEW UCS in one of many ways

You can also use the 3DORBIT command and jusat play around with the angles.

 

To Adjust the snap ang simply type in SNAPANG[Enter] and then type your  Angle

If you want isometric angle, you can use SNAP[Enter] Style [Enter] I for isometric

 

Hope some of that helps. If not give us some more info to work on .

 

Good luck

You may need to provide more info.  Maybe VIEWSTD command, pick first or third angle projection.

Always save a copy of the drawing before trying anything suggested here.

If something I wrote can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, I meant the other one.

Do you already have third angle projection in the drawing?

Model documentation is not available in AutoCAD for Mac, if you mean it.
