Autodesk Inventor

[#1]

I cannot select origin to constrain sketch with dimension to origin?

I selected Sketch,

expanded origin,

selected mywork plan (xy)

drew rectangle,

input dims,

right click for marking menu,

selected dimensions,

Origin is yellow,

cannot select it and then edge of rect to set dim that will center sketch on origin?

Just like the videos show, but cannot select origin>

Please advise?

Project Geometry

What version of Inventor are you using?  This should be automatic.

You should be able to. Can you post the file with the offending sketch?

Ver. 2013 Inventor Lt Suite to be perfectly accurate.

Thanks.

P.S. Any other thoughts or suggestions will be immensely appreciated.

This is for a full version of Inventor 2013, but I imagine LT has a similar option somewhere.

Yes, mrattray, that in fact was the step I missed.
Thanks again for everyone's input.
