- PXSETSHIFT: [STANDARD-PRO-PREMIUM]
Specifies the displacement between the real coordinates and the position in Google Earth. It actually means "how many meters on XYZ I have to shift an image imported by Google Earth in order to coincide with my drawing"? It applies in every data exchanged with Google Earth, such as terrain, exported KML's, etc.
