How to move 3D package to correct footprint position for an existing device?

I have a device with symbol, footprint and 3D package. See picture The 3D package is shifted and I want to move it to the right footprint position. But How? I see no way to just move it.
And I can also not delete the 3D package to add it again. Because it says it is in use. While it isn't!

Hi @mechamania ,

I hope you're doing well. In the library content manager, select 3D packages and then double click the 3D package in question. That will allow you to edit the placement of the 3D Package.

Let me know if you run into any problems.

Best Regards,

George - You can do better than this. I searched for the same subject to get the same answer, your answer is non-responsive. Tell us where to find the instructions on how to maneuver the 3D package relative to the footprint outline. It is not at all obvious. The best I can do is move them together, how does one control them independently, and where is the documentation on how this works.
