I heard of AUGI forums from a friend and I am very impressed so far! Here goes my first post:
I am using AutoCAD Map 3D 2010 and I have two drawings: 1) survey control points, and 2) a map of the zoo I'm working on. I want to copy the control points drawing into the zoo map drawing so I can see and use all the survey control points layers in the zoo map drawing file (so, basically not an xref). My problem is that when I copy the objects from the survey drawing over, the position and rotation is way off. I checked the coordinate systems of both files before I performed the copy command and found that they are matching.
Is there some sort of "import" function I need to do instead of a straight copy procedure? I've tried a few different ways of copying and I've had a couple different (incorrect) results. Thanks for your help.
