Move part origin point

When selecting the [Move part origin point] sub tool, manipulators are displayed at the origin of 3D objects and nodes (parts), and the position of the origin can be adjusted.


 

In case [Movability] parts are selected in a [Group] in the [Object configuration] palette, and if [Use the node origin as the center of rotation] is unchecked in the [Object information] palette, the manipulator is displayed at the position of the rotation center, instead of at the origin of the [node]. When operating the manipulator, the position of the rotation center can be adjusted. The position of the origin can be adjusted in the same way. For details, see "When a movability part is selected" .
