Chapter 3 Viewing and Displaying Three-Dimensional Models 59 UCS Settings The UCS shortcut menu in the view cube lists the WCS and the names of all named UCSs in the current drawing. If there are no named UCSs, the listing is WCS and New UCS. See Figure 3-11A. To create a new UCS, pick New UCS from the shortcut menu. Next, use the appropriate UCS command options to create the new UCS. See Chapter 4 for complete coverage of the UCS command.
