How can I turn off the Relative Origin symbol?

by DesignSpark

This tutorial requires:

DesignSpark PCB V11.0.0

Using the relative origin is a powerful tool for the design layout in DSPCB, however, once enabled by the right mouse click options it may appear to be permanently enabled.

It does not cause any problems being enabled and permanently visible, however, if you wish to remove it from the design view, from the menu bar use Settings - Coords… and in the window un-check "Use Relative Coordinates".

Use relative coordinates

The relative origin will automatically be enabled and visible the next time you select to use the feature from the right-click options.
