Once you have you view set up change your UCS to view. BTW If you worked with views in paperspace you wouldn't have this issue. Chas wrote in message news discussion.
Message 3 of 9. Sorry I am very new to Autocad. How would I go about changing the UCS to view? Also, what is paperspace? Thanks for your help Ryan. Message 4 of 9. Ryan: Lines are drawn in the X-Y plane. If you want to draw a line in another direction from the current UCS orientation, you must reorient the UCS so the X-Y plane is parallel to the direction you wish to draw the line. Paperspace is used for plotting views of objects you have drawn in modelspace.
To see these objects while in paperspace, you must create a viewport a scalable window which allows you to "view" objects in model space FROM paperspace. Perhaps a review of the basics in the help files would expedite things a bit. Message 5 of 9. Ryan, I'm kinda old school about how I execute commands. In Acad there are numerous ways to accomplish the same task. The more you learn the more you will realise this.
I execute most of my commands from keybord input at the command line at the bottom of the screen. When you enter the command "ucs" at the command line it will return a list of options at the command line as a response. There are also other options to the command not listed in the reply, one of them is "view". This will allow you to set the current UCS to the current view. Be open minded and read all you can if you are new to Acad.
The best way to explain is model space is where your model resides, paperspace is where your drawing resides. Keep al model geometrey in model space and all drawing relatedinformation in paperspace notes, leaders, dimensions. Message 6 of 9. Chas says; "model space is where your model resides, paperspace is where your drawing resides. Keep all model geometrey in model space and all drawing related information in paperspace notes,leaders, dimensions. Occasionally a note as well.
Everything else in MS. Model, orthographic drawing views, dimensioning and annotating. Obviously, there is more than one way and we all have to find what works best for us and the discipline that we work in. Message 7 of 9. Our dicipline is based on using solely solid models.
We don't draw any lines other than reference or construction lines. To exit any command, just press Enter or Esc button on the keyboard. Step 4: Here, I will show it by example; I will take the line command from the draw tool.
Step 5: Take the point anywhere in the workspace, turn Ortho On by pressing the F8 key. Step 6: Now, I will drag the mouse in the right direction and give the length of 40 mm by typing it from the keyboard and will click Ok to apply my command and press Enter to exit. Step 7: You can select any line or object by clicking on it. The selection will show in blue color with some dots. These dots are snapping points of that line or object, i. Snapping makes drawing easy in AutoCAD software.
Drawing an inclined line in AutoCAD is not hard work. You can easily draw it by giving the inclination angle. For drawing an inclined line, take a line command from the draw tool. Step 4: Press tab to give the angle of inclination and type 30 as angle, then press Enter to apply the command, and again press Enter to exit.
Step 5: I will show you how to continue your line. I will again give a length of 40 mm. Step 3: Give direction in which you want to draw a line, give length, then press Enter key. Give another direction, then again give length, and press Enter key. Step 4: Now, I will drag my cursor in the right direction and give the length of 60 mm — press Enter key.
Step 5: Again, I will give direction in the vertical position and give the length of 40 mm, then press Enter key. Step 6: Then give direction in the horizontal position in the left direction and length of 60 mm, then press Enter key.
Step 7: Give direction in the vertical position in the down word direction and give the length of 40 mm. Step 8: You can choose the close option from the lower-left corner of the workspace to close the object. We can use both properties of the line in a single drawing by turning the Ortho command On or Off. After learning about Lines in different expects you can easily find a great difference in your knowledge. Now you can draw any type of drawing in a very professional way.
