Component in Capture not visible

JG202502053226

Hi all,

So I had to import a project from Altium to Orcad. Originally I was using Orcad 17.2 but am now using Orcad X.

When I first imported the project I noticed that some of the components were way outside of the template window, specifically above it.

There is still a missing component, which I know is in the project because when I search for it it appears in the result window on the bottom.

I am convinced that it is also out of frame since according to the search output it reports that the component is in zone C4 but also at coordinates (1580,-1110).

That coordinate is clearly outside of my window so my question is is there any way to change the size of the window so that I can get to that coordinate?

Or is there any way to jump to or select the component at that coordinate?

Thanks

    Capture only supports positive coordinates from the Top Left, Set the Page Size to as large as you can through Schematic Page Properties. Click in the Schematic Page to activate it, press Control+A to select everything. If there is a Title Block at the lower right, control+click that to deselect it, hover over one of the visible, and selected, parts in the schematic page to get the "four pointed" cursor, then click and drag to move the parts into the Page.
