Universal Coordinate System (UCS)
The Universal Coordinate System (UCS) in Architron allows users to create a custom, adjustable work-plane. It is seamlessly integrated with Cinema 4D's workplane, enhancing its functionality for more efficient architectural modeling.
UCS is instrumental in accurately placing and modifying objects in a defined space, making it crucial for effective architectural workflows.
Key Parameters:
Key Parameters:
There are three basic UCS modes:
Off: Disables UCS, relying only on the default Cinema 4D workplane. Freeform tools like the Line tool ignore this workplane in the perspective viewport.
Auto: Automatically creates a work-plane after the first mouse click of the tool, functioning on edges, polygons, and flat NURBS surfaces. Note: Auto-UCS is currently not supported on curved NURBS surfaces.
Fix: Keeps the work-plane fixed, providing a stable reference for precise modeling.
Auto Corner: This option defines the corner point of the clicked surface, using it as the pivot point for the newly created UCS plane in Auto-UCS mode.
UCS from 2D Object Workplane: Available in Auto mode, this option allows for the creation of a UCS from a 2D object, automatically placing the work-plane on the base plane of selected 2D objects.
Show Position HUD: Displays the current mouse position in UCS coordinates in the viewport, visible at the bottom left corner.
