AccuDraw Coordinate System Rotation Auto Changes to Auxiliary


 Product:MicroStation
 Version:CONNECT, 2023
 Environment:N/A
 Area:Drawing Aids
 Subarea:AccuDraw

Problem

The Coordinate System Rotation setting in the AccuDraw Settings keeps reverting to Auxiliary even though it has been changed manually.

Now most times when AccuDraw is used in a workflow, the Rotation setting must be manually set to the desired option.

Solution

Toggle OFF the ACS Plane Lock (Drawing Aids Tab > Locks Ribbon Group > ACS Plane Lock) and then manually change the Rotation setting.

Be sure to Save Settings (CTRL+f). If still having issues, try reloading the current file with key-in rd=.

If problem still persists in a specific file, then try the ff= key-in to fence out the file's contents and leave bad data behind.
