Changing components origin to match assembly origin

[arnou-verfaillie]

Hello there

Is it possible to change the origin of a component to match it to the assembly origin without moving the component?
I need to import components of a robot tool into RobotStudio in order to make a mechanism for my simulation. When I import the assembly as a whole, I can't choose the seperate components. When I import each component on its own, their location is off due to the origin location. Moving and modelling in RobotStudio is rather klunky so if this would be possible in Fusion that would make things a lot easier.

Thanks in advance!

The Move command in Fusion 360 doesn't change the component origin when you move a body. With this in mind, create a copy of the component using Copy/Paste New.  This is just to hold the position for component.  Now, move the original component so its origin matches the main origin.  Next, move the component body to it's original position using the Point to Point command between it and the copy.  Remove the copy.
