Title: 2D model space / 3D model space
Post by: jonesy on January 30, 2009, 09:00:50 AM

I have a feeling this is going to be a really dumb question, but here it goes anyway.

For the first time in years, I have been working in 3D, and all is great, until I orbit and I get the viewcube up. How do I get the original ucs icon and back to the original 2d model space :(

Many thanks
T :)

Thanks for your answers, but, sorry, it looks like I didnt explain myself very well :(

I dont want to see the UCS icon like the attached image, nor the viewcube... I just want plain "2d modelspace" back rather than the 3d parallel or 3d perspective projections.

I'd already tried the setting the ucs to world, and plan to world, but that leaves the viewcube and the ucs as a brightly coloured object in the corner of my screen :)

Set your VISUAL STYLE to 2D WIREFRAME.

Thanks MJ and Matt. Thats just the job.

Must remember that one, last time I did any 3d work, was using r14 :-o
