copy ucs to a new file

[Snoopy_01]

Good evening,
as from title I wanted to know how to copy the ucs from one file to another.
I'll explain better.
I imported on autocad a cloud of points that I provided to rotate by setting a new ucs so as to work better.
now I would need to work on a new cloud of points (so other files) but with the same ''rotation'' and then use the same ucs before.

I'm not very expert on this subject and I don't know if I explained well I wanted to know how to do this.

Thank you!

Are part of the points of the first cloud overlapping to other points of the second?
in this case the solution is to allow the program that generated the clouds to join them.
to join 2 or more clouds you must necessarily rely on programs that run the clouds. if you want to do a precise job.

cloud appears is a great (excellent) free program to manage clouds of points and make the union of more clouds among themselves

I add to my previous post:
in case the 2 clouds of points are different between them and have points in common that are superimposable then the solution that I have predicted before, i.e. proceed to a fusion of the 2 clouds and then proceed to the identification of the xy plan (operations to be carried out with cloud appears). the cloud resulting from the fusion can be exported on autocad and there will be no need to rotate the uct.

If instead the 2 clouds are identical then consider saving the first (what you rotated) and saving it.
instead of opening the second you will open the first and you will work on that (wheeled).
If you do many operations with point clouds then I recommend you install cloud appears, whose main qualities are the power and the fact that it is completely open source.

Otherwise the thing would be problematic, because I think autocad does not manage the points separately, but consider them all a set, so the individual points are not selectable.

but I didn't understand if you turned the cloud or the bird

but in fact if it has turned the cloud there is no need to create a new ucs.
rotation made to "eyemeter" because autocad, for what you count me, does not allow to set constraints on individual points of the cloud. It's just impossible, (word of version 2016). The cloud is considered as a whole.

Sorry, but regardless of how the cloud was rotated or not rotated, the question concerned the importation of the bird into a new file.

to make it use this lee mac program . after loading the program type "steal" and follow the instructions. the bird must have a name so you have to save it first (command "ucs", "_save", name)

to make it use this program of lee mac...

I was about to report it myself or could post two (but just two) lines of code written a few years ago, but given the interest shown by the op I preferred to leave.

(defun c:ucsget( / fr)
(setq fr (open "c:/lisp/rpmemucs.txt" "w"))
(princ (acet-ucs-get nil) fr)
(close fr)
)

(defun c:ucsset(/ fr)
(setq fr (open "c:/lisp/rpmemucs.txt" "r"))
(acet-ucs-set (read-line fr))
(close fr)
)

path and file name put us what you prefer, ucsget saves on file, ucsset set by file.
I admit that I never had this need, in any case, taking inspiration from express, rtucs, except on file the list created by acet-ucs-get and reuse in another dwg through acet-ucs-set.

I would like to point out that it is not my intention to question a usefulness which allows the export of the bird.
only that I think a little precise work to proceed to an eye rotation of the cloud of points.
Of course, you can do without precision when this is not considered necessary, but generally it is better to do rotation by selecting certain points through programs that manage the clouds.

probably the rotation and subsequent creation of a ucs are served to have a xy plan on which to draw a section 2d. section placed maybe inside the cloud... It's hard to know.
