Ordinanc Survey Map .dwg

Post by DenisB-J » Thu Jan 15, 2015 7:09 pm

Hi,

I've recently bought a cople of .dwg maps from OS and they come with the cartisien co-ordinates with 0,0 somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean somewhere of the South-West coast of the Silly Iles. How can I modify this so the the map starts at 0,0 in the bottom right hand corner?

I'd do this using cut / paste:
- Select all
- Edit > Cut with reference
- Click desired location of the zero point
- Edit > Paste
- Enter 0,0 in the command line and press enter
