Launching into the world of sharing models, I have been asked to put onto the drawing the location of (0,0) set out from the grid.

Any help on how would I go about doing this? I assume this is the co-ordinates of the model? I also assume that where ever that is set on the current model I just need to tell them where this point is?

Thanks

Simon

When you open a new project, 0,0 is located in the middle of your screen. To view the "Project base point" which is located at 0,0 click the light bulb in the bar on the bottom of your screen to reveal hidden elements. That will show you where 0,0 is. (Sorry, I don't know the name of that bar off the top of my head). Hope this helps.

Thanks, I've found the point. I assume I've got to just give them the dimensions of this point off the building grid we have.

Thanks
