&lt;p&gt;So you wanna know the difference between &lt;em&gt;coincident&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;coincident world&lt;/em&gt; when attaching references? Read all about it here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Coincident:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you attach a reference using the &lt;em&gt;Coincident&lt;/em&gt; setting, MicroStation lines up the reference to the design plane coordinates only and does not take into account the location of the global origin. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table cellpadding="6" border="0" style="width:100%;"&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td align="top" valign="top"&gt;&lt;img src="/askIngaPics/184Pic1.jpg" align="left" border="0" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Coincident World:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This setting accounts for the global origin so that when you snap to elements in the attached reference, the coordinate information will be correct. Use this setting when the global origin is in a different location than that of the active file. The Coincident World setting can be loosly represented as follows: &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table cellpadding="6" border="0" style="width:100%;"&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td align="top" valign="top"&gt;&lt;img src="/askIngaPics/184Pic2.jpg" align="left" border="0" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note that the Coincident World option is not available when working with DWG files since AutoCAD does not support the notion of global origins. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Setting the configuration variable &lt;em&gt;MS_REF_COINCIDENTWORLD=1&lt;/em&gt; sets the default reference attachment mode to Coincident World, which can be useful when attaching multiple references at the same time. &lt;/p&gt;
