CAD layout coordinates

Hello all,

I have a cad layout in mm (simple 1000mm x 1000mm square) - the model is also in mm. 

When I import the layout, Flexsim centers it in the dead center (which is fine) but yet the coordonates of the layout object are strange.

When I try to move the layout so that the bottom left corner is on 0,0,0 point the layout also has strange coordinate values.

Is there a way to fix this ? I need all my coordinates in the model to be positive. 

Thank you.

The coordinates of the background show where the coordinate origin of the dwg-file is placed. You'd need to change its location to coincide with the corner of the drawing in the dwg itself.
