    A lisp or macro that could be used to create a named UCS to use for placing plate heights in sections and elevations. Using the elevation projection tool to create elevations places your elevations all around your model, each rotated 90 degrees as you go around. A seperate UCS needs to be created for each elevation with the origin located at where you want your +0'-0" label to be and the Z axis going in the positive height direction of the elevation, NOT in the regular direction of the world UCS (out of the screen towards the user). So I see the routine being as follows:
    1. select the tool
    2. locate the origin of the new UCS
    3. Enter a name for the new UCS
    - The routine would create the UCS and then insert the elevation label block, telling it what UCS to use.

    That would be an awesome tool! If all that cannot be done a routine just to create the named UCS would be great also. Anybody up for doing this? I would have no idea! Thanx.
