The second figure shows the change that occurs when the lower-left, or front,
viewport is made current. The UCS in the isometric viewport updates to
reflect the UCS of the front viewport.
In previous releases, the UCS was a global setting for all viewports in either
model or paper space. If you want to restore the behavior of previous releases,
you can set the value of the
UCSVP system variable to 0 in all active viewports.
To apply the current UCS to other viewports
1 Make sure the UCS that you want to apply to another viewport is current.
2 From the Tools menu, choose New UCS ➤ Apply.
3 At the prompt, click in a viewport to apply the current UCS to that view-
port, or enter all to apply the current UCS setting to all active viewports.
