If your system is equipped with location sensors, they can indicate your current position in model space.
The system displays the My Location indicator in model space at the position corresponding to your current location. If you move, the My Location indicator also moves. If your position cannot be determined accurately, a blue circle is displayed around the My Location indicator. The smaller the circle, the greater the accuracy.
AutoCAD depends on the location services built into Windows to implement position tracking. Hence, if you are using Windows 7, enable GPS sensors before you track your position in a drawing. If you are using Windows 8,
- In administrator settings, enable the Windows Location platform (This is ON by default).
- In privacy settings, turn on the “Let apps use my location” option.
Windows XP does not have built in support for location services. Hence, if you are using Windows XP, you cannot track your position in a drawing.
