Displaying Arc Centers, Origins and Reference Points

Displays an arc or circle center marker. This command also marks placed objects and text origin points of indicated entities, as well as reference points for dimension lines.

\markp

Indicate the arc (wire circles, polygon circles and wall arcs), placed object, text or dimensions. A temporary three-dimensional cross is displayed, marking the center of the indicated arc, origin point of the indicated object or text, or reference point of dimension line.

The markers are not part of the object, i.e., they are not database entities and are erased if the screen is regenerated. They cannot be extracted to another file or be plotted.
