Copy/Paste functionality with added support for UCS.

If you use clipboard to copy AutoCAD drawing objects, you may found a problem when copying/pasting objects in an offset or even rotated ucesr coordinate system (UCS).

With the add-on utility CopyBase you can easily clipboard-copy objects even in cases when you use customized UCSs.

Download the CopyBase tool from Download, load the LSP file into AutoCAD (e.g. with APPLOAD). The application defines two new commands - CCC and VVV - thet work similarly to COPYBASE and PASTEORIG, only they respect the UCS. You can assign these commands e.g. to Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V.
