Align an Area or a Sheet to Control Points
|

You can align an area or a sheet to control points. Control points are sometimes represented on the floor plan. If you have a separate control points file, you must know which coordinates correspond to which features of the floor plan.
The procedure of aligning areas and sheets is very similar. The main difference is that you cannot set an elevation in sheets.
If you want to align both, an area and a sheet, you must align the area first.
For more information on the area and sheet concept, see Areas and Sheets.
