Plan

A plan view is a view aimed toward the origin (0,0,0) from a point on the positive Z axis in UCS or WCS. This results in a view of the XY plane.

CAD drafting Plan 12 Command Line: PLAN

You can select current UCS, named UCS or WCS

Options:

Current UCS	Changes the view to XY plane in current UCS. Used by default
UCS	Changes the view to XY plane in saved UCS. You will be asked for the name of the saved UCS.
WCS	Changes the view to XY plane in the WCS.

The Plan command changes view, but doesn’t change current UCS. All coordinates entered or displayed after running the command are counted relative to the current UCS.
