User Coordinate Systems

AutoCAD UCS Command

In MicroStation, coordinate systems other than the file's default orientation and origin are called Auxiliary Coordinate Systems (ACS). You define an ACS through the ACS tool box using an element, points, or a view.

The ACS triad is turned off and on from the View Attributes dialog box (Settings > View Attributes).

To save and name auxiliary coordinate systems, use the Auxiliary Coordinate Systems dialog box (Utilities > Auxiliary Coordinates).
