 I would like to know if it is possible to place a parametric cell via actual coordinates? Because when i place a cell, the format of XYZ changes. 
 I want to place them via this coordinates: 
 
 
 
 But when use place active cell, the XYZ numbers</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Placing parametric cells</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/535231?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 29 Jul 2019 12:06:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:9c0c5f03-727a-496f-b08d-6917e18396a8</guid><dc:creator>Mark Marnell</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Not that I know of, I am sorry to say.

[EDIT - I used a 'normal' cell, not a parametric cell. I will test that also.]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ACTIVE ANGLE [ angle ]&lt;br /&gt;AA= [ angle ]&lt;br /&gt;Tip: Using the AA=&amp;lt;angle&amp;gt; alternate key-in to set the active angle can be faster than using the controls in the Active Angle category. For example, to set the active angle to 45 degree, key in AA=45. If angle is omitted, the current setting is displayed in the Status Bar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;EDIT - the place parametric cells dialog does not &amp;#39;read&amp;#39; the active angle. I will get a defect logged.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Placing parametric cells</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/532768?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Jul 2019 02:16:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:667bafb0-25ef-495a-af72-443b7f120bf5</guid><dc:creator>Crisanto Aquino</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi, thank you it worked.
