Hi Everyone

 

This might be a basic question and I have looked at other forums to find the solution but does anyone know how to turn this off? 

 

It is not an object that I have placed but it is always there on the 0,0 coordinate.

It is the 'Survey Point' that you have turned on.

I am not sure where the command is in the menus (I have a custom Work Environment).

 

EDIT: just found it ... Options menu > Project Preferences > Show Survey Point.

 

But there is a 'Project Location' toolbar that controls it.

Thank you, Barry. Knew it had something to do with survey point.
