Floor plan Origin relationship to Layout origin (For trace reference)

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to use the layout as a trace reference to be able to simplify layout placement. For some reason though, when I turn on the trace reference on one view, it shows the layout on a different position in relationship to the floorpan origin. Then on a totally different position if I turn it on on a worksheet. What is the best way to set this up so that project origin is always the same ? It doesn't see to be a scale issue.

Hi,

If theres no view placed on the layout and you use it as a trace reference in the view, the layout will be placed to the centre of your view (centre in relation to all the elements placed in view) regardless of its scale and origin.

Key to note is, layout as trace reference will only match to your view only when you place a view on the layout.

If you are simply testing the view layout placement, try to place them directly in the layout instead of using trace reference.

I hope it helps
