    MOVE iMATE GLYPH WHERE I WANT...

    Is it possible to move my imate glyph where I want it to go yet?  I have checked all of the old posts and haven't found a solution aside from trying the yabbadabbado technique (which didn't work).  Is there an update to access the hidden registry?  Is there something I am missing with moving my glyph where I want?

     

    To let you know where my mind is, I am trying to position two objects.  I have working composite iMates already on these objects that work and reflect a different component connection.  I have a work point on each object where I want the connection to be.  On my original composite iMates, using this work point is good, but on my new iMate composites, I want to provide offsets from one planar surface.  When I add the iMate to the plane in question, it shoots my iMate glyph in a place where I don't want it and can't use it as a connection point (like on the other composite iMates which use a iMate right on the work point).  Does anyone have advice?  I feel comfortable with iMates, my composites i already have in place work on multiple components and if I could move the glyph where I want would solve a lot of problems...Thanks in advance.
