Smart 3D Version

Smart 3D supports the modeling of objects within a 100 km range (-50,000 meters to +50,000 meters along each axis) from the global coordinate system origin. However, due to the 32-bit precision limitations of graphic cards, objects modeled further than 10,000 meters (6.2 miles) of the global coordinate system might not display correctly when you zoom in (circular objects will appear distorted for example). If your model coordinate values are large (for example, E = 60,000, N = 55,000), to get the coordinate readout that you want, you should define a coordinate system at correspondingly large negative values (example, E = -60,000, N = -55,000). Then, use the coordinate system that you created as your active coordinate system for modeling and output. Do not bring this new coordinate system into your workspace.
