When placing a new element (Manhole, Catch Basin, Outfall) the X and Y coordinates under "Geometry" properties are automatically identified and added to the propoerties of each node. The problem is that these coordinates do not line up correctly with the project. Graphically the nodes are shown in the location they were placed, but the X & Y coordinates are of a point 4.1455' away. However if I try to correct this and input the correct coordinates then the node is shifted to that point. Its almost like my StormCAD model has shifted from other Microstation files. I first noticed the shift when I exported the information to InRoads, and when back and discovered the shift in the coordinates. All the work was done in StormCAD V8i for Microstation (Select Series 3). I attached a photo where you can see the difference between the properites of the node and the actual coordinates.
