DaViper Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I am needing to plot some survey points on a grid and need to move my origin point. It is currently oriented at the top left corner of the page. Is there a way to move this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopsaw Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 That being said, I am sure there is a way around the situation. You may be able to select everything and shift it in relation to the origin point. If it is the x=0 y=0 point on the base grid that you are referring to?

Alaskan_Son Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 You can't move the origin but what you can do is move everything in relation to the origin. I think edit area all floors and point-to-point move is probably your best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaViper Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Well that is sort of a CAD "need-to-have" but I guess I will make do. The issue is that some of my points exist in other sectors of the cartesian map. IE, negative values. Next I will have to determine if I need to or can even add scale factors.

Chopsaw Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Yes you can set up custom scale factors in Preferences under Unit Conversions but be careful. What kind of data are you working with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlackore Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 We've suggested better control over the coordinate system for many versions - still no joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
