You use the command just like the Rotate command. Rotate the project graphically in the view
to True North, or on the Options Bar, enter the angle and direction from True North. See
Rotating
Elements
on page 308.
The linked project in the current view does not move. However, if you look at other plan views
whose orientation parameter is set to Project North, you see the change.

Relocating a Project by Entering Points
You can relocate a project and rotate the project to True North by entering specific coordinates for
North/South, East/West, and Elevation. You can also set the angle between True North and Project North.
You can click anywhere in a view to set the coordinates. Some coordinates may not be editable depending
on where you click. For example, in elevation, if you click on a level line, the only value that you can edit
is elevation.
You can use this command when you have a specific set of coordinates from a surveyor, or if you report
shared coordinates and want to relocate the project to the coordinates reported.
