Axis to Axis Translation
Axis to Axis Translation
(OP)
I'm trying to "move" my default origin/coord. system to a new location. I created a new axis system for my cylinder along the parts axis/ centerline but at the opposite end of the part. (X=0, Y=-2.75, Z=0 --> position from default origin). I want this point to be my new 0,0,0 so I can place coord. dims using this as the new reference.
I think my problem is in the set-up of the axis to axis transformation feature. I just cannot get this new axis system to default to 0,0,0 as the part continues to reference the default origin.

RE: Axis to Axis Translation
In V5 you can do the same by again making your new axis the active one.
