Hi everyone

I have a dynamic block for coordinate dimensions with northing and easting value on block attributes. It works well on the drawing. The x, y value automatically updated when the insert point moved.

The problem is when the drawing printed out, all the values for northing and easting shown 0.000 not the value shown on the drawing.

Anyone knows, please help.
Thanks

could be a number of reasons. most common reason i've found, is that the user doesnt reset the world. typicly using coord dims, you have to move the 0,0 ref point to where you want to start from. i've seen a lot of people have similar problems because when they were done, they neglected to reset the ref point to the original 0,0.

It's better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.
