Snaps not working correctly.

Question

I have bee having this problem at work with microstation v8i 2D lately. Say I have a grouped hole, if I try to copy or move the hole off of its center, when I snap the hole to another location and right click out, the hole center is offset .0337mm down and .0471mm left from the point I tried snapping it too. This happens if I try to snap on intersecting lines and center marks on other items. Anyone else have similar issues?

 not a problem if your never going to use V7 export, as the design plan in msnt v7 isn't large enough at te settings your using to hold all the design or possible design ,,, for our GO we used to use false origin and - northing to force it to fit out local STATE in a design file and still have real coordinates but this isn't used anymore with V8i onwards its all relative to 0,0 and we have datums... it was still legacy incase you need to match old files with xrefs and if your using another product to import dgn similar to how acad let you use dxf and most other products can handle dxf...
