Changing the Location of a 2D or 3D Section
You can relocate a section by changing the coordinate values of its insertion
point. The section also has an orientation with respect to the WCS or the
current UCS. For example, if the top and bottom of the section are parallel to
the XY plane, its normal is parallel to the Z axis. You can change the orientation
of the section by aligning its normal with another axis. You can also rotate
the section on its plane by changing the rotation angle.
For information about the world coordinate system (WCS) and the user
coordinate system (UCS), see Use Coordinates and Coordinate Systems in
AutoCAD help.
