case, the inner cross should be aligned with the outer cross.

In case of misalignment the arrows indicate the pattern of the manual alignment that will correct the
misalignment. Also, the ‘20’ label indicates the direction towards where the line will be moved when a ‘20’
value is applied. For example, imagine that in the manual alignment the chosen value for L is 12, and the
chosen value for O is 7. Imagine also a misplacement in the c0:
