UCS input and UCSFOLLOW
Direct point input
After running UCS, a click or typed coordinate can immediately supply the
new origin, followed by a point on the positive X axis and a point in the
positive XY plane. Explicit 3P input continues to work. Origin / O still
changes only the origin with one point.
The interactive option prompt also accepts Spanish keywords, including
Universal, Vista, Cara, Objeto, Origen, Guardar, Eliminar,
and 3p / 3 puntos, as well as international English option keywords.
UCSFOLLOW
UCSFOLLOW 0: keep the camera orientation when the UCS changes.UCSFOLLOW 1: align the view immediately with the current UCS XY plane and follow later UCS changes. Re-entering1realigns after a manual orbit.- Bare
UCSFOLLOWprompts for the value; Enter keeps the current setting. SETVAR UCSFOLLOW 0andSETVAR UCSFOLLOW 1work too.
The value belongs to the model pane / floating viewport and uses the drawing's existing VPORT/VIEWPORT fields, not a global application preference. Paper space itself does not follow the UCS: enter a model viewport first. BEDIT's special block-reframing path is intentionally left unchanged.
The immediate alignment on entering 1 is deliberate: users can define their
UCS first, then enable following without another UCS change.
A user-defined alias such as UF,*UCSFOLLOW can invoke this command. It is not
installed automatically. A PGP imported before this command was implemented
must be imported again (or edited manually) to add its previously skipped
alias; activating it still requires Apply.
