Creating a rigid group repositions all my components

[Anonymous]

I have created an assembly of components, moved them into place mostly with Move point to point feature, then I select all the bodies and attempt to apply rigid group, it rearranges everything into a jumble of crap.  How is this supposed to work?  This is massively frustrating.

Oh that doesn't look productive at all! I can imagine how that can get frustrating.

Have you tried grounding one component before you combine them as a rigid group? You can just right click on one of the components in the browser and select Ground. 

Let me know if that makes it better,

I did some research and it turns out that this might be a bug. There is a similar thread on this topic here: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/design-and-documentation/rigid-group-glitch/m-p/5545283/highlight/true...

You can accept the snapshot after you move the componnts and that should resolve it for now.
