Hi Gang,

Got an interesting one....

One of my work-mates reset his UCS and then wen to draw an Orthogonal Polyline. BUT the Polyline draws several degrees off from the X,Y settings. This even comes up in properties (ie the line angle shows as 3.1928 degrees).

The UCS is definitely flat (ie not rotated 3D)

The Polyline is definitely not snapping to anything.

Any Comments?

Hi John,
