Absolute and Relative coordinates displayed together.

GP studio

There is a way to display Absolute and Relative coordinates together in OrCAD PCB Designer Professional ?

In most cases when i move a symbol or other object, i need to know the absolute coordinates, but also the relative distance from origin of move. This is much important, is a real need.

In the past I have used Castar, Altium, Pads, but all these CAD, they visualize together the absolute and relative coordinates as defaults. Besides they allow to reset the relative coordinate in a select point in the pcb, and therefore to know the relative move from that point.

How must I do for forwarding this enhancement to Cadence ?

Thanks for any answer to this question, Gianni.

P.S. The image below it is only a proposal.

    All other tool i know have, Absolute and Relative coordinates displayed together ! With zero point "set" of Relative Coordinates.

    Only in OrCAD/Allegro this are not found why ? Please implement also this feature !
