Local files inverted

[briarcutter]

Couple months ago I updated my LS+ to the 4.0 software ... since then when I import my local files (10,000/10,000) to the LS the points are inverted.
They are imported into a Page with WGS84(ITRF2008) as the crd system
The attached pdf is the "true" plotting of the points and the attached screen shot is their orientation after import

Any help is appreciated ... thanks in advance

also note
(1) the Zoom In & Zoom Out buttons are at 0.00 ... this stays the same regardless of the zoom feature
(2) the North arrow is pointed correctly

It is not possible to import Cartesian coordinates into a geodetic coordinate system and you should have received an error if you tried this. You need to create a local coordinate system and then import these points into them. Also to be able to help more, we need the project archive attached.

My procedure for importing local crds into the LS:

after project is created I edit a Page ... I click the "Page Coordinate System" tab ... hit the "house" button and create a local system (typically same name as my file to be imported) with WGS84(ITRF2008) as the underlying crd system ... then I import points into this Page

This is how I have done local file import since I've been using the Javad System (since 2017). I've never had the unit invert my points like it is now doing until I started using 4.0.

If I'm importing these crd incorrectly ... please advise correct way

thanks in advance ... Paul

So the coordinates were imported in a Local System which is correct.

I still need to be able to see the project archive or the units on RAMS to understand what went wrong.

To summarize what we found. The map is initially flipped for some reason when the points are imported with a local CS with WGS84 as the underlying system. When a state plane CS is used as the underlying system this does not happen. After two points are used in the localization the map corrects itself.
