[Equest-users] cad file trouble?

Shell coordinates/inputs won't affect the position for the CAD reference(s).  What you're looking for is the origin coordinates for the references.

You have the opportunity to specify these "offset" figures when first importing a CAD file, and can access them after the fact with this icon I've circled:

The dropdown dialog will let you note the origin inputs for your other references, and you can match them up to sync the positions for each.

Best regards!

Subject: [Equest-users] cad file trouble?

beginner question. Hi everyone,

I did everything to make the cad file fits with other floors coordinates, but it still appearing in other place. I did just one cad file with one layer per floor, all floor are aligned in cad, but, just one floor appears to be wrong, but I dont know how to fix it up. I changed the shell coordinates, one by one, and nothing happened, the floor in 3d view was in the wrong place.  Please, help me.
