Tutorial 4.2
UCS Manipulation
Learning Objectives
After completing this tutorial, you will be able to:
• Change the User Coordinate System (UCS) according to design needs.
• Use 3D coordinate entry for drawing objects.
• Create a 3D model given orthographic views of the object.
Required Competencies
• Competency #1
• ast
User Coordinate Sstem
The three-dimensional coordinate system determines how 3D objects will appear when
inserted into the drawing environment. In order to minimize the amount of secondary operations
required to locate the objects in the modeling environment we will create a User Coordinate
System !UCS". The #$% will allow the designer to manipulate the X-Y plane for &D drawing the
'-a(is for e(trusions or objects with height or the orientation of the 3D coordinate a(es.
There are many options in the #$% command for how to specifically change or modify thecoordinate system. This tutorial will attempt to ta)e the student through several of the most
useful operations for manipulating the #$%.
