Title: Importing Multiple Cad files
Post by: cappleby1 on August 05, 2014, 09:16:56 AM
I have cad models of my fixtures and I would like to move them around in the software.  For example I have a model of a 1-2-3 block and a granite table.  I would like to move the 1-2-3 block into different locations on the table.  Keep in mind that they are two separate cad files so this should be possible.  I used to do this in pcdmis but I have been unable to figure it out in polyworks.  Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

The Manual Alignment dialog will move anything that is selected in the tree, including Reference Objects.

 8) Today I imported the model I made of our granite surface plate into my i inspection program.  I now have to model of my part on my inspection table.  This was exactly what I was looking for, Thank You!!! ;D
