The Coordinate system

In order to get the best out of LibreCAD it is wise to have a good uderstanding of the coordinate system and how coordinates work.Everything that you draw in LibreCAD will be exact and precise and will be placed there accurately based on the X,Y coordinate system.

The absolute origin or Zero point in your drawing is where the X and Y axes cross each other,every entity you draw is located in relation to this origin.
