select block origin (solved)

Post by bambuko » Fri Jan 13, 2023 5:10 pm

Editing block (BE) - want to select block origin to create a line through...
How do I, please select point/block origin?
is it possible?
At the moment I am using Edit block in place (BB) to find a point by reference to other geometry.
There are other ways... but I would like to pick/select block origin as a point?

Code: Select all

The origin of a block is usually at 0/0 when editing the block.

If you cannot solve the problem, please attach the drawing file in question and elaborate on what you are trying to do.
