How to align group of components

[Anonymous]

In the image below, I want to be able to grab all of the green components (as a group) and align them to the highlighted component in the center. I previously had all of the green components as it's own assembly but was still unable to use the align tool to accomplish this.

Hi @Anonymous

Create a rigid group from all green components then you would be able to move/align whole group

This does not work for me. Only one part of my assembly moved, the rest including all origins stayed in place. https://autode.sk/2UiFCfD

Anybody? I have the same issue here.......

Want to move all components of the printer model to a new origin, but only one body will move at a time......

Hi,

This is not a problem if you have connected the individual components with joints.
But the screenshot does not give any information about that.

Hi Guenther, no, they are not connected, I received this file from another designer....

Hi,

I recommend that you look into assemblies.
There are numerous tutorials on this.

Make all components a rigid group. Assembly > Rigid Group.

Then Joint one of the Components in the group to the new document position.

Might help....
