Ifeature Placement

I am trying to place a simple Ifeature, its basically an offset from reference geometry but when I place the ifeature it offsets the feature the wrong side of the line.

 

Any ideas why

Hello,

 

Thank you for having posted your question on this discussion group.

 

Have you tried to add a dimension between the geometry and the reference line used in the ifeature?

Could you mabye attach your ifeature file to help us to reproduce this error ?

 

Many Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I didn’t have time to post an example file but here it is.

 

I created a simple block then offset from the reference geometry and extruded.

 

When I create the IFeature and place it for some reason offsets it the wrong side of the geometry as shown in the picture.

 

Is there any way to stop this?

 

Obviously this a simplified version of the application

 

Any Ideas would be appreciated

 

Thanks

Any ideas why
