Hi!
I'm quite desperate. I have a problem with one of my drawings. It is stuck in 3d view. And I want to change it to 2d. The viewcube is showing (it is set off when in 2d view). What is the most frustrating is that I found the solution couple of months ago, but I forgot it. I think the commad was something with word 'space'. I've tried everything (command 'plan', command 'vscurrent') but nothing works.
Please help.

Hellol danko358, if you are in the paper space ( layout ) and you want to modify your view with your viewport open then you will have to unlock it.
If it's an other thing I'm interested because I've never heard of a thing like this before!

Hi. No I'm not in paper space. I'm in model space. I've found several people with the same problem on various forums, but no one was able to help them. They all advise 'vscurrent' (2d wireframe) and 'plan' command, but that doesn't help. These commands get us in top-down view that we want, and everything looks fine but the viewcube is still there (although it's turned off for 2d view). And that isn't a 'global' problem, it only happens on two of my drawings. So I think something is set wrong on these drawings. Again thanks for any help. Much appreciated.

Upload a copy of the offending drawing so we can have a first hand look at it ourselves.

If you only want the NavCube turned off just make NAVVCUBEDISPLAY=0.  This variable is saved with the drawing... not in the Registry.

Thanks Dave, the NAVVCUBEDISPLAY command is set on "3". But "3" is also my blank drawing (default) setting (and the view cube doesn't appear then) so I don't think that's the problem. I've made a "wblock" of a segment of my problematic drawing. Keep in mind that on the problematic drawing the VSCURRENT is set on "2dwireframe" and whan I do a "wblock" and open it, VSCURRENT is set on "current", clearly not 2d (ucs icon is weird, 3d) and the viewcube is also displayed.

Normally the navcube will display if NAVVCUBEDISPLAY=3.  I honestly can't tell you why yours would be off if that's the setting.  But it is stored with the drawing (or template) in any case.

You may need to have more postings in order to make uploads work.  I'm not sure what the limit is.  Yours here didn't make it for some reason... either because of user restrictions or possibly something you did.

Maybe the viewcube is turned off in my case bacause I set it off in tools - options - 3d modeling - (uncheck) 2d wireframe visual style. So whatever is stored in drawing if the drawing is in 2d wireframe visual style it won't show the viewcube. But that's just my guess.
I reuploaded my file.

This is very vague. If your AutoCAD got stuck and not responding? You may try "Task Manager" and "Switch to" if the program is hung. If you want to convert the 3D to 2D, you can try "Flatten".

Does
UCS [+ Enter for <World> default]
followed by
PLAN [+ Enter for <Current> default]
not work?
