I know there are some complicated analysis on the worksheet origin behaviour, but bottom line, don't use the worksheet for "plan" view references. It does not stay in one place.

For xref plans, aerial photos, surveys, etc., I use a separate story to make sure that they stay in the same place in relation to the project origin.

Something off topic, but still: renee, please use proper english, since most of us are not native english speakers and l33t speak is a very annoying thing and hard to understand.

It's very hard to understand for anyone who grew up before the age of text messaging.

It's also perverse that writing in txt speak is probably slower on a normal keyboard than typing the full words.
