Changing from Geolocation to Internet Mapping Service

We've aquired coordinates from a dwg file. 

 

In the knowledge site (https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2020/ENU/Revit-M...) it says "After linking the DWG file, you cannot select another value for Define Location by unless you remove the DWG link."

 

We've removed absolutely ALL links, purged and recreated the central file and still we can't change to "Internet Mapping Service" for defining the location. Every time we change, hit OK, close the dialog box and reopens it, it's back to "Get Location From Survey Point" and the old coordinates are back.

 

How in the world can we get rid of this? There must be a way to remove those GIS coordinates?!?

 

(We're in Rvit 2022.1)

Thank you!

The correct path is actually Manage > Coordinates > Reset Shared Coordinates.

 

@Anonymous :Having to reset the coordinates isn't a very good solution though, since any changes to rotation etc will be removed and we're forced to recreate all changes. There should be an option to simply remove the GIS connection without zeroing out the coordinates data.
