#### Origin Defining Element(s) area

To move the data within the plane, an 'origin' can be selected using the Origin Definition Element (s) area in the View from Orientation dialog box. This is done either by selecting one ore more geometries within the level data, by specifying a numerical offset(s), or both.

- To select a geometry:

1. Select the Element 1 option.

2. Select a geometrical feature in the Create Levels-NEW FILE window (for example, a line). If the Apply button is then pressed, one of the end points of the line will become the 'origin.'

3. To make the other end point the origin, select the Point 2 check box.

- To make the intersection of the two lines the origin:

1. Select the Element 1 option.

2. Select a line in the Create Levels-NEW FILE window.

3. Next, select the Element 2 option.

4. Select a second line in the Create Levels-NEW FILE window.

5. Click the Apply button to move the level data to the new origin. (Any combination of lines, arcs, circles, and points can be used to select an origin.)

- Numerical offsets can also be entered to move the origin in the horizontal and vertical directions (being defined relative to the orientation).
