Axis through cylinder is off in space

[ELAFING]

I selected the inside face of a bearing block and the axis line is way way off. Any ideas?

[jeff_strater]

I suspect the axis is correctly aligned with the cylinder, but its "extents" are drawn incorrectly.  You can drag the endpoints of the axis to fix it.  Also, if you could share the model here, we can take a look at why the extents were drawn incorrectly.  Thanks.

the endpoints of the axis can be grabbed in order to lengthen or  re-position the axis

The axis line is over 70 inches away, are you saying the only way to solve this is to find that line in space and drag it back to the cylinder it is meant for?

Only seen this problem with imported parts or components that have been translated. Probably should have supplied example designs so autodesk can tune it up but always too busy at the time.

Here is the file.

If you export to an iges file then reimport the problem's gone. Seem to remember when I've seen this the original file (STP, sldprt) contained a block that had been translated (Moved\Rotated) and this transformation confused Fusion. Attached file is of the reimported iges file.

thanks for sharing the model.  I've created bug FUS-58648 for this.

As for fixing the result, really, it's not that bad.  Ten seconds of dragging or less is all that's needed.  Once you've fixed it, it will remain in place.

This component is used in an assy will this break the link and the joints already applied?
