Graphics Panel - Location Tab

If you create a graphic from a graphic file or a CAD component on the Graphics panel, the Location tab is displayed. From the Location tab, you can use the global reference frame, or select a body or marker to which the graphic object is located and oriented. You can also enter Origin, Orientation, and Scale values for X, Y, and Z. From the Graphic list, select the graphic type for which you want to define properties. The options change depending upon the type of graphic you select (File or CAD):

Origin	Origin of the graphic object with regard to the Body or Marker specified, or the global origin. The value is ignored if any of the auto positioning locator points are specified.
Orientation	Enter three euler angles (in radians) of the graphic object with regard to the Body, Marker, or global frame specified. This is ignored if automatic position orient or automatic position orient scale is specified.
Scale	Enter three scaling factors for the graphic object in the Cartesian directions. This is ignored if automatic position orient scale is specified.
