Extrusion direction relative to UCS:

I am having trouble plotting arcs. I do a "list" and this is what i get.
------------------------------------------------------------

Command: list

Select objects: 1 found

Select objects:
                  ARC Layer: PROFILE
                            Space: Model space
                   Color: 72 Linetype: CONTINUOUS
                   Handle = 55
            center point, X= -0.0173 Y= 0.0260 Z= 0.0000
            radius 0.1600
Extrusion direction relative to UCS:
                   X= 0.0000 Y= 0.0000 Z= -1.0000
            length 0.2485
             total angle 89
------------------------------------------------------------
The problem is the z=-1.0000. I have tried all the basics to try to resolve this problem. The question i am asking; is there any way of getting rid of this extrusion direction in AutoCAD R14-2000? Or is there any way to erease the properties in a file?

if you would like to take a look at the file email me at

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thank You,

Jeff

 

that happens when regions are exploded sometimes, depending on the clock direction the region was defined.



some machining programs wont recognize the arcs correctly.



 



try to make a block of all of the offending arcs then change the z scale factor to -1 and then explode the block.



you can use QSELECT to filter out all arcs with Normal Z = -1
