Move Origin

Click the View menu to access Move Origin.

ORIGIN redefines the location of coordinate (0,0) in the current drawing. When you insert a file, CC3 uses the (0,0) point as insertion point. The origin of CC3 templates is at the lower left corner of the inside of the map border.

The origin of a symbol definition also defines its insertion point.

When you select ORIGIN, CC3 displays a crosshairs cursor and the prompt reads "Origin:". Select a point with the crosshairs or by typing numeric coordinates. (The center or lower-left corner of the part is usually a good choice.) CC3 moves everything in your drawing so that the point you selected is at coordinates (0,0).

The UNDO command does not work for ORIGIN.
