APPLY TEXT TO A 3D SECTION

Anonymous · ‎06-29-2015

I have attached a small 3d section drawing that I want to add text correctly to. I have read about using the UCS command but am confused on how to apply it. Can you explain how I can add text and or dimensions so they are on the correct plane? I am not needing to rotate this view at all.

Thank you.

Usually a drawing starts with UCS World

To use other UCS planes, use command UCS, then for example type in X then 90 will put text as shown in the photo.

Reset to UCS, W for World before using Y, or Z etc......

I am doing something wrong? Are the letters not standing up because I did not draw this in the UCS world? I tried different rotation inputs and I did have success lining the text up parallel, but can not seem to get the text standing?

Attach your .dwg and let's see.

PDF doesn't help much.
