atulkumarengineer Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Dear All!, I want to import the attached file to cypecad for structural analysis. It mandatary that lower left corner of drawing should be moved at (0,0,0). How to do that?? Please help. Regards, Atul shh1.dwg Quote

danellis Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Save the below routine as insn.lsp then APPLOAD the file. The command is then INSN. (defun c:insn () (command "UCS" "ORIGIN" pause "BASE" "0,0,0" )) This works on the opposite principal to Tiger's suggestion, it moves your origin and basepoints to the point you select. dJE Quote

I believe it is important to maintain a consistent and reliable origin point (the WCS) within drawings. By relocating the origin to a non world 0,0,0 there is no consistency. Quote
