Locate the cell origin in cell libraries
Original Tip Date:
Dec. 19, 2003
Can't find the cell origin in cell libraries?
While building a playhouse for his pet kinkajou,
Mike Otte
found the time to post this tip:
To view the cell origin in a V8 cell library, you simply turn on the
ACS Tridad
in the
View Attributes
dialog.
However, if the cell library was converted from V7 to V8, the ACS triad may not appear.
To correct this, go to
Utilities > Auxilary Coordinates
and change the
Type
from
None
to
Rectangular
. You should now see a mark at the insertion point.
