3D-sketches offset.....sigh....
(OP)
Only had this proble earlier when exporting piping assembly drawings to autocad. the centerlines of my piping assemblys would show up ( even if they where supposed not to) offset from the rest of the assembly, giving me a lot of extra work deleting them in autocad.
Now I am using these piping assemblys, hiding all the piping parts in the piping assembly to just display the routing. It works like a charm when the piping assembly itself is the top assembly in the drawing, but when used as a sub assembly, it is displayed allright, but when I try to pick the inividual lines, they are offset. its impossible to "get hold" of them.... very frustrating....
Anyone have experiences with this kind of phenomenon ?
All unput is greatly appreciated !!

The offset is like equivalent to 7-10 meters, a couple of inches on the drawing.
Oh !! might be important... this generally happens when using Named wiew, not parallell with any of the main axes in the top assembly

I am a SolidWorks User, I am not really convienced with the piping options of solidworks. Can you or anybody else give me a suggession or any information about its options.
