Problem

How do you redefine the Coordinates of a DGN, and re-designate the
Global Origin (GO)?

Solution

To modify the coordinates where you are working simply determine what
would make a good Monument Point. Something such as a corner of a
building would suffice. Keyin GO= and hit enter. The Global Origin
dialog will open and you can input the desired X, Y and Z, then click on
the Monument point you have chosen. The DGNs GO will now have shifted
and you have redefined the coordinates of your Modeling area.
