To Translate and Rotate Parts Using the Location Dialog Box
1. Choose one or more parts in the Structure Tree.
2. Open the Location dialog box in any of these ways:
◦ Right-click and choose Edit Properties.
◦ Click the arrow on the Home tab in the Location group.
3. Select one of the Relative to options:
◦ Parent—Places the selected parts according to internal coordinate systems. Default when the selected parts are from the same parent.
◦ Global—Places the selected parts according to the coordinate system of the whole model.
◦ Pick from geometry—Creates a reference coordinate system on an object in the view.
| • If you only change the referenced coordinate system, the coordinate system values change, not the part's location. • In case of multiple parts with offsetting, changing Relative to zeroes the offset and keeps the previous state. |
4. Set the values in the Translation boxes to change the part location.
5. Set the values in the Rotation boxes to revolve the part.
6. To control the scale of the selected parts, set the Scale.
7. To invert parts and create mirrored structures, click Invert Parts.
