Question: Moving faces in relation to other faces

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I want two faces in my model to be 6.35 inches apart, and as you can see, for whatever reason, they aren't. Is there an easy way within the move command to specify that I am moving the face a specific distance from the other face? Creo Direct Modeling does this wonderfully with a little red and green arrows near the manipulator that you put on the reference faces, then you set your distance accordingly. Can fusion do similarly, or do I have to measure, math, and move?

Solved! In the direction you want to move, where it has the value for the amount you want to move in that direction, hit the drop-down arrow, and push re-anchor, then select the face you want to move from.

Yes, ok... but it's not so simple as in Creo and spaceclaim for example.

I suggest to make it more powerful, if possible!
