Move and Rotate the Entire Geometry of a Part

You can move and rotate a part so that the part and its origin (insertion point) will be in a desired position. Move and rotate a part as follows:

  1. Select Part | Tools | Move. More options...Less options...
    • (OR) Select the context-sensitive function Edit Model >  Move the whole geometry of part.
  2. Fill in the data in the Move Geometry dialog box. Select the position of the part's origin with the Origin button and select the directions of the coordinate axes with the X-dir, Y-dir and Z-dir buttons.
  3. Select OK.
Note: The move will be a part of the part’s history so that you can later edit or delete it.
