Hello,

Do you know if it possible to deselect a UCS once you have selected it? It is annoying sometimes to still see the grid of the UCS if you don’t need it anymore. I know it is possible to make the grid invisible through “Options”, but I’m wondering if it is simply possible to deactivate the UCS.  
Thank you.

Do you mean the extended co-ordinate frame as shown below?

No, what I mean is setting a workobject as UCS to use it as a reference, for example for moving an object with respect to that workobject. It looks like once you select a wobj as UCS then you can’t simply deselect it, the only thing you can do is to select a new wobj as UCS.

Hello,  
You can select your station as UCS…

Thank you! I didn’t know that!
