Lat Long values as autotext

Anonymous — Wed, 03 May 2017 01:32:34 GMT

Hello,
can anyone tell me if its possible to access the lat long values set in Project Location so they autofill in a text block or title block?

cheers, Hugh.

Not as autotext but you do have GLOBAL variables in GDL.

GLOB_PROJECT_LONGITUDE project longitude (project dependent, do not use in parameter script)
GLOB_PROJECT_LATITUDE project latitude (project dependent, do not use in parameter script)
GLOB_PROJECT_ALTITUDE project altitude (project dependent, do not use in parameter script)
the geographical coordinates of the project origin according to the settings specified in the Project Location dialog

I just found the AC 20 object called "Coordinate Dimension 20"
which does just this- I'm so happy!
