Toni Pogue Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I've never used a STEP file before. Imported my first one this morning and the Top/Plan view gives me a front elevation view. Is there a way to reset the axes? Screenshot of Top/Plan view attached, I am unable to attach a .STEP file to this forum. I am a new Vectorworks user and don't know where to start.

Pat Stanford Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Two suggestions. 1. Try again, but set the view to Front before you import. 2. Group the objects, go to a side view, Rotate the object 90/270 degrees as required to get the UP pointing up. And an extra one for ducks. 3. Always import into a new blank file so something like this does not corrupt a lot of work in an existing drawing and then reference or copy/paste into the file you need the data in.

Toni Pogue Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 Pat, thank you so much! #1 did not affect the outcome -- the file just readjusted itself -- but #2 worked perfectly. Toni Quote Link to comment
