Welcome to CADTutor. :)

 

Try typing UCS at the commandline > ENTER

WORLD > ENTER.

 

That will probably get your world back on the tracks.

The UCS is set to world but all of everything that I have drawn so far in on the front plane instead of the top plane where it was when I started. Even if I am viewing everthing fron the front plane if I draw anything it will be on the top plane.

 

It is as if i rotated everything 90 along the X axis.

did you change your view?

type in view, the view manager appears, then select the preset views tree, followed by selecting the top view, afterwards select the "set current" button. now your view is set back to the top view.

 

if possible could you attach a screen shot so we can see whats going on (Only if this does not fix the issue)

No luck.

Here is a screen shot from the top view.

Why don't we cut to the chase? Attach a copy of the DWG file to your next post. Someone here will take a look at it. Hurry. Let's try to get this resolved before Christmas.

here is the base floorplan. I had to strip out the PDF and some other stuff to get it below the size limit. Hope you can help.

That's it? All you wanted to do is rotate the floor plan so that when you were in the "top" view it appeared correctly? Here you go....

Not knowing how ReMark's drawing was created, one way that ends up with everything at an elevation of zero, is to take the East or right view. Then rotate everything about the point 0,0 by minus 90 degrees. Saves getting tangled with 3D rotate.

I did not bring the floor plan down to an elevation of 0'-0". Is that a requirement too?

 

OK....you got it.

I thought that it would be a kindness :D

Already taken care of. See post #10.

jcone: Can we get an update? Did you literally straighten out your drawing?
