Grid. Displays a two-dimensional array of lines similar to graph paper.
This grid is oriented along the X and Y axes.
NOTE Before starting
3DORBIT (page 40), you can use the GRID (page 469)
command to set system variables that control the grid display. The number of
major grid lines corresponds to the value you set using the Grid Spacing option
of the GRID command, which is stored in the
GRIDUNIT (page 1346) system
variable. Ten horizontal lines and ten vertical lines are drawn between the
major lines.
UCS Icon. Displays a shaded 3D UCS icon. Each axis is labeled X, Y, or Z.
The X axis is red, the Y axis is green, and the Z axis is blue.

3DORBITCTR
Sets the center of rotation in 3D Orbit view.
Summary
Starts 3D Orbit view and uses a center of rotation that you specify with your
pointing device. If you specify a point outside the current view, 3DORBITCTR
ignores the specified point and uses the default center of rotation.
