If you have a object in model space, ie a rectangel that is at a angel, ie
not square with the page, can you plot it in paperspace so that it is square
with the page? Would it be a case of changing the UCS? Can any one help?

Command: DVIEW / TWist

....or change the UCS and issue a PLAN command (but it isn't necessary).

Paul,
Whenever I issue the DVIEW/TWist command the following newly created
viewport always displays at the previous twist angle. Once the new viewport
is "Twisted" back to zero angle all is well again. Is this standard
behavior?

Yes, it's normal behavior. You can use the PLAN command to return the new
viewport to the current UCS. What I normally do is to create several
viewports before adjusting them; then each one "sticks" the way I set it.

BTW, be sure to set UCSFOLLOW to 0 in each of your viewports to prevent them
from zooming to extents unexpectedly.

Thanks for the advise of UCSFOLLOW variable. In the beginnig of by
paperspace journey it took a while to discover the importance of "0"
setting.

That's funny. It took me years to discover it existed because every file I
ever worked on had it set to 0. I can't really imagine a scenario where
you would want it any other way.

When first working with Autocad, it was for someone else, on their
equipment, with their software and their odd settings. Took a little while
for me to learn to adjust things so acad behaved.
