Add move and rotate for parts and subassembliies

Add move and rotate for parts and subassembliies

It should be possible to move and rotate  a set of parts and subassemblies even If they are fully constraint, for example by adding a move/rotate feature in the assemby, simular to the flexible move command for geometry in part mode in flex. modeling.The included parts are not sequential in the model tree.

 

Also include the option to copy (instead of move) and Pattern the selected parts.

 

The parts to be moved should be able to be selected by picking or by box-select and the move/copy/rotate should be able by dimension and with the from-to option.

You can copy/pattern selected parts.  To copy you need to select the part in the tree.

yes,  but this idea is about moving or copying a set of parts within 1 action and the parts are not sequential in the model tree, so pick a random set of parts.

What is the use case? Sounds like what you want already exists with the explode functionality.

Yeah that whole tree system they have is just absolute garbage.  I'm not sure why you would require the tree to be sequential like they do. Maybe its cause they're using the same basic program they started with 20 years ago.
