Is it possible to change the positioning centre of a part or an assembly? In the picture below the moving centre is off the assembly by 1500 mm and I would like to move it to an centre axis of one of the parts.

Any help is appreciated

I have not been able to replicate what you show here.  Is this issue only on that one part?  Or is this issue on all parts you create?

How did you select the part? What was the command sequence you used?

This is not the default behaviour.

Is this effect only for this specific part?

I selected the Position command and then selected the assembly from the tree.

There are a couple of assy's that have this problem, but I think they are all from an older program versions. This has never happened, to my knowledge, on new parts that I have created on version 19.0. They probably inherited the problem or they were created during transfer I think to the newer version.

This is more of an annoyance than a problem really. Was just wondering if there was a command to move the "positioning centre".

Hi,

I also have the problem Mattias told.

It should be possible to define the position of the Co-Pilot like I want.

That would be a very nice innovation.

Kind regards
