How it works

  1. Click the origin, or type it as x,y. It snaps, so a corner of a wall works.
  2. Click a point on its X axis, such as the other end of the same wall, or type it as @dx,dy from the origin. It snaps too.
  3. Type a name and press Enter, or press Enter alone for the next free one (UCS 1). The UCS is in use in this pane straight away.
