AutoCAD - WCS

Expert: <font color=#6b238e>J. </font><font color=#ff7f00>B. </font><font color=#0000ff>Borge</font> - 5/31/2007

Question
Is it possible to edit or change the WCS of a drawing?

Answer
Dave, the WCS (World Coordinate System) is your default coordinate orientation used for reference - It can't be changed. However, if it's manipulated (rotated/repositioned) by the user, it's commonly refered to as the UCS (User Coordinate System). Hope this helps, let me know!

Regards,
Jory Borge
