Sketch centerline not alligned with center of workplane

Dear people, This will be a little hard to explain, but I'll try it anyway. I'm currently drawing a tube, made of 2 segments. 1 big one and 1 small one. In those segments, I'm cutting out holes. I use work planes, angled with the original work planes to get the right angle and offset for the holes. Now, as for the problem, when I use Sketch on a workplane, the center of the sketch is not on middle of the workplane, but a bit off. I can't seem to get the sketch centered.. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi rene,

 

there is no "center" o "middle" of the workplane.

Workplanes are infinite workreference planes. On those planes or with those planes you can do a lots of things, for example do a 2d Sketch on it.

 

In the Sketch you will have auto projected the origin point 0,0,0 on the sketch plane(workplane), and you can add projected geometry if you will need it.

Sorry for the late response, it worked when I used Project Geometry.
