Did you get a chance to try GEOGRAPHICLOCATION command which inserts live map in AutoCAD Mechanical 2014. This is a new feature in 2014 products.

Please let me know if this helps or you need additional help?

Thanks,

Yes this works, but I wish to use a different map.
As http://openwms.statkart.no/skwms1/wms.topo2? .
I know it works in Autocad map.
Another possibility is and use a picture and use ALIGN command.
But this is more work

Hi Olav,

Unfortunately we cannot insert a different map in AutoCAD Mechanical. GEOGRAPHICLOCATION command always inserts Bing Map

Thanks,
