I also opened the translator and not finding it.<BR /> I am placing couple of external dwg plans into archicad but it doesn't have option as to whether it should be placed where I want it to be or be placed in the same orginal dwg origin. this will be a problem of placing updated external dwg plans. <BR /> I am sure archicad is smart enough to have already thought of that issue and I am missing how to do that. Please help.</T></DIV> Wed, 19 May 2010 02:50:32 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/External-dwg-origin/m-p/142848#M76640 Llian 2010-05-19T02:50:32Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/External-dwg-origin/m-p/142849#M76641 You have this option only when placing a DWG/DXF as an XREF.<BR /> In the Place XREF Dialog you can check a checkbox to place to original location or define it graphically.<BR /> <BR /> If you place the DWG/DXF using the Drawing Tool, then you can move that Drawing to wherever you want.
