AutoCAD 2010 :: What Is The Difference Between World UCS And Top UCS
Feb 15, 2013
Question - What is the difference between the world UCS and the top UCS?
I am working in a fairly large model and when I have the UCS set to world and do the ID command I get the correct coordinance. However when I am in a plan view and UCS is set to top the co ordinance come in roughly 600 feet different. How to set the UCS so that co ordinance will be the same no matter what UCS is being used? Or explain why this would be?

In my drawing I have set my UCS to a gridline (I'm drawing up a survey from a construction site), named the ucs 'square' and then set Plan view to Current so that it is nice and square to the screen. I saved the drawing in this plan view.
However, when I reloaded the drawing this morning, my 'square' plan view has become 'World'. Also my 'square' UCS has disappeared from the list of UCS's. I thought this was just a funny bug so I typed 'UCS' followed by 'w' hoping the world UCS would go back to the real one, but nothing happened. As far as I know it is not possible in ACAD to rename, alter or in fact do anything to World UCS (for good reason), but this is what ACAD appears to have done all by itself.
Luckily I have all the site gids saved in their 'world' orientations so I can get round it by a simple bit of copybase/paste/rotate, (but it means my dimension text is all going to be skewiff).
As a caveat I should add that I am a very exprienced ACAD user (7years) and regularly work in 3D in all kinds of views and UCS's and I've never had this happen before.

How to stop the UCS from automatically turning to world when extruding a circle?
Example: If you start with a circle drawn to your set 3 point UCS the quadrants are in line with the X & Y but as soon as you extrude the circle into a cylinder the UCS turns the quadrants to world, I want the quadrants to stay in the same place as my 3 point UCS position.
Not sure if it's just a system variable that need changing.

I have a file that is behaving very oddly. Its a detail that I cannot pick some lines on in world UCS, but in Isometric views will pick ok, and to make matters worse, when I do a regen the lines in question vanish.
File attached, refer to AS DRAWN MKGP2, top left of drg sheet 324125_JJ_005_A.dwg

I am trying to insert Geo-referenced TIF files into Map 2013 but the associated World files are not being found/recognised even though they are in the same directory as the image. I have tried both TAB and TFW using MAPIINSERTand Data Connect.
Going back to Map 2012, which we still have in the office, the World files are found and correlated correctly with both of the above World file types and Map commands.
I can do what I need to do in 2012 for the moment

I have 4 plans of the a building in separate files, all set to world ucs. I xref in ground floor to the first floor, then move the first floorr so it aligns. I complete the same process for plant room and roof. Having saved all the files I then xref back the first floor into the ground floor using the insertion point as 0,0,0 but the plans do not align???!!! I do the same for the other plans, the plant room plan aligns with ground floor whilst the roof plan aligns with fist floor [but not ground].
I have tried reinserting numerous times but am missing something? The files were supplied to us as dwg format but I do not know the full history.

I want to move our firm to using a UCS that aligns with the viewport.
However my hesitation has always been that World does not seem to restore to the original coordinates.
We do survey drafting and the map grid coordinates are critical and we drop in new survey data over the existing on a regular basis.
I tested it again last week but still I cannot insert new data into the same position even after restoring to World UCS. It is consistently about 1.5 units offset from the correct position.
Am I doing something wrong? Should USC World set it back the identical original coordinates such that I could confidently paste with a 0,0 base point and have geometry by in the correct position.

I have been sent a very large number of files for which the world file is jpgw not jpw. Is there any way to get AutoDesk to recognize this? I know that I can get it to work by renaming the world file to jpw, but I have hundreds of files so really don't ant to go down that route.

I am trying to insert a tif that has a world file. I have AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013. I changed my workplace to Planning and Analysis. I clicked on the Image ican. I found the tif file I wanted (the tfw is in the same directory), I clicked open. It does not give me the option to select the tfw from the correlation source dropdown.

I have a storm drainage drawing that has all the parts, pipes, and their labels in model space (as a data reference) and everything shows up fine in Civil 3D 2010. But my drafter opened the drawing in regular 2010 auotcad with object enablers loaded and the labels were rotated to the world coordinate system and not the plan view. Is there a setting in the styles that controls this?

I have read somewhere using PSCS2 that you can go into shapes and retrieve a picture of map of the earth. I know the keys you have to press on the keyboard are 3 seperate keys to get this image from the shapes as it is not shown in the menu's for some reason.
So does anyone know the keys to get the world map?

The geometry when try, to center in 3-D world space, does not. Shown are a few problems that I see with 3-D studio Max 2013, and I am not a professional. Any way to contact Autodesk in order to show these problems, but I'm showing in the pic.

Just wondering what the best way is to set-up my units and scale preferences in 3dsmax. I would like to have my units in mm or cm so that when I import an object with known and precise measurements, it will stay consistent in 3ds max. So that I can visualize the objects in the correct scale and make measurements with the right numbers.
Of course I dont want to mess with results ofmy textures, animation, camera and anything else in 3ds max and would want to have everything behave normally if my units were in cm or mm in stead of the default.

I'm trying to add an aimConstraint between objects that are placed under different transforms, but the problem is, it seems aimConstraints calculate the direction using the target and pointing objects local coordinates, is there someway to make it calculate them using world coordinates instead?

I mainly use MyPaint, Gimp and Inkscape, but I also made a quick tour ofother painting softwares. If all of them take into account the color (asis, without any characteristic like viscosity, nature of a paint - oily oraqueous) and the toools to apply the color (with a stiking inventivenessregarding the brushes !), I have not found any that directly simulate thebehavior of the media on which the color is applied. However, to take justthe example of the watercolor, the paper has a fundamental importance onthe effects that can be applied and on the final rendering.
Of course, with a good expertise - and dexterity - in a particularsoftware, one can, by manipulating the image, achieve a very close if notidentical result. But this is akin to a Grand Chef cooking, with secretrecipes, tricks and tips, subtle dosages...
why the medias are not implemented in the paintingsoftwares ? There is some few basic parameters as the substrate porosity,surface roughness, anisotropy of the porosity and/or roughness, inclinationof the surface of work, and if this is coupled to some parameters of theink, like viscosity, attractive or repulsive power of the ink, you can workreally more intuitively.

World-Ready Composer: In CS6 (North American) only InDesign has world-ready composer, which enables RTL languages. I need that functionality in Illustrator. Presently RTL can only be typed LTR, ie backwards .
I'm attempting to cut and paste sections of the Pentateuch in Hebrew into Illustrator so that I can format the text for cross-stitch embroidery. I already designed the cross-stitch true type font, which is working, but I need world-ready composer in order to paste RTL Hebrew in the correct order.

Is there a way to expose the world coordinates of a linked object like a null?
When you link an object to another it uses its parent space coordinates or coordinates that are relative to the parent. I really need to know the actual world space coordinates.
