Quick Reference

You can view a marker that defines the geographic location as a graphic (in model space view) or as a status bar coordinate display.

You can view a geographic marker in either of the following ways:

• A graphic overlaid on the model space view at the World Coordinate System (WCS) location of the geographic marker.
  Note Set the GEOMARKERVISIBILITY system variable to 1 to view the graphic for geographic marker in the drawing.
• A status bar coordinate display that shows the latitude or longitude of a WCS coordinate at the cursor location.
