Hey Guys,

How do change the center line of a structural column? i am trying to make a base plate for this PFC.

I am making the dimensions "from the center" but the center of the column is on the web not the center of the column.

You will need to edit the PFC Family directly.

Within the Family there are specific references planes that define Centre Left/Right and Front/Back the PFC profile will need to be aligned so it is to the Face of the extruded shape.

I would be more inclined to edit the Baseplate to have it off centre and have different types of BP for such instances.

or build in an offset parameter so it could be offset from centre
