change the the 'view' in that viewport to BOTTOM if original is TOP

Left = Right

Front = Back

Actually it appears you want to either

Reverse your profile or
Use DVIEW>>TWIST>>180 on your viewports so that pipe flow direction matches your profile direction

Why would you want to look at a "2D" drawing from the bottom?

Wouldn't mirroring the drawing be more appropriate?

Thank you for replay guys,

I wouldn't mirroring the drawing because the problem is the profile.

I have to start the profile in a highest point to a lower.


I've attached other file to explain better my task.

Thank in advance

if using C3D there is an option to create the profile left to right OR right to left....it's rare but the right to left method is useful sometimes

Unfortunately I'm not using C3D.

How Can I fix it in autocad cad 2015?

dview twist the viewports that the profile is showing....below them

you will need to reorient your labels however that should go rather quickly (if that is what the ground is doing?)

I don't know how to do that, to be honest.  :embarrassed:

Could you help me out, please?

activate viewport

type DVIEW @ command line

select an object

chose TWIST

enter 180

enter...

you should be done...if your label blocks were set to match layout orientation you might not even need to rotate them

If I rotate the viewport, model space will change too?

you are not rotating the viewport...

you are twisting (rotating) what you see inside the viewport


your viewport...first as you posted

second twisted 180

I use these in buttons to work in Model Space.
They also work if you Open a Viewport.

Code: [Select]

UCS World
^C^C-view;top;

UCS Right Elevation
^C^Cdview;;tw;-90;;_ucs;w;_ucs;z;90;

UCS Left
^C^Cdview;;tw;90;;_ucs;w;_ucs;z;270;

UCS Back
^C^Cdview;;tw;180;;_ucs;w;_ucs;z;180;

Set those label blocks to align to layout..

I can't get that change to stick in block editor, so you may need to redefine the blocks and set that property from the beginning....

Or re-label

Hi mjfarrell
I don't know how to set the labels to align to layout.

Could you make a little example in dwg file, please?

Fantastic!  :-D

I'll try it out, but I have a lot of text.
