    Problem Description

    The ACS location is changed and need to create Workframe at the changed ACS location. While creating the Workframe at that location, it does not recognize the Start Point at ACS location and places the Workframe at the cursor pick location. 

    Steps to resolve

    To place the Workframe in desired ACS location or changed ACS location, one need to use Key-in command. Please follow the steps explained below:

    1. Click on Workframe tool. Go to AccuDraw tool box and left click anywhere on that box. Then press on key "P" on keyboard to open the Data Point Key-in box.

    2. In the Data Point Keyin dialog, from drop down menu select ACS(ax=) and put the value as "0" (zero) then press Enter key. It will activate the active ACS as start point.

    3. Now, the cursor will pick the exact ACS point where you can place the Workframe at your required direction.

    In this way, you can place the Workframe at any ACS location.
