Coordinate system shifted!!!!!!

Anonymous
Not applicable
Ok I have one for you guys. I have been working this project on and off for a month or so. Today I was working on it for a while with the usual fatal errors and such. I looked down to the bottom left at my coordinates and they are in the negatives all of a sudden. I have a copy of the drawing that I did a save as on a couple of days ago. That has the true coordinates in it, somewhere around 10k, 10k. The weird thing is that all my viewports in PS still show what they are supposed to. If somehow I moved my entire drawing by accident in model space my viewports wouldn't line up. I am baffled............and frustrated.............

Thanks Jon......

Way to make me feel like the Idiot of the day:) I set it to world and all is well. I have no Idea how it got messed up. I haven't changed my ucs at all today. No ducs either.

That was like trying to find my glasses when they are already on my head!!!!!!!

I wouldn't have known to suggest it if I hadn't also made the same mistake.
