AutoCAD/ADT 2005 - View drawing UCS

Advertisement


Question
I am a fairly competent drafter, with a reasonable amount of experience with AutoCAD/ADT.  I am dragging View drawings into a Sheet via the project navigator.  All drawings (construct, view, etc) are drawn in World UCS, but when I drag the View drawings over to the sheet I get two copies inserted in the sheet file and the one that appears in paper space is skewed at about 15 degrees.  Do you have any suggestions as to where I may be going wrong?

Answer
Hi -- congrats on progressing so far.
And congrats on posting the most complicated question I have gotten here.
The obvious answer is the old AutoCAD standby - do it all over if you cant find the problem in 3 tries. (lol)
Not being the expert on this, I am going to ask you to go to the Autodesk Architectural Desktop discussion group and post the question. I would do that for you, but you should be in contact with the people there for followup, and to answer what they ask in trying to help.

There are incredible people there who can help you better on this one than I.  You can even say I sent you, if you want to see me ridiculed, ha ha.
Let me know if that is OK with you and how it works out.

Good Luck.
