Datum Targets

(OP)
After 6 years, today is the first time that I have used datum targets.

After setting the properties for the target, how do I accurately locate the target?

Drag & Drop just like text.  Check your SWx help file

Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience every time.

(OP)
Can I not give some kind of relationship like using the center of a circle?

Otherwise, what's to stop me from using a hatch trick?

RE: Datum Targets

It registers on the outline of the part so I don't think it would allow you to pick the X-sect hatch.
