But, this ignores the UCS rotation so I need to add some code to counter this...<BR /> <BR /> <BR /> Hoping someone knows this off the top of their head...</T></DIV> Tue, 02 Jul 2013 05:35:45 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Libraries-objects/USER-COORDINATE-GLOBAL-VARIABLE/m-p/164854#M13821 vfrontiers 2013-07-02T05:35:45Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Libraries-objects/USER-COORDINATE-GLOBAL-VARIABLE/m-p/164855#M13822 Is this what you are after?<BR /> <BR /> REQUEST ("view_rotangle", "", angleViewRotation)<BR /> Returns the rotation angle of the current view.<BR /> <BR /> Barry.
