Hi
Simple task but not for me. Just trying to copy this black solid and want to
place it on the middle of the blue marked edges. Why does it not give me any points
on the either of the two solid edges. Corners yes but not midpoints anywhere.
Matias...
Hi,
Use the "point to point" move tool, it should work

Thanks.
Ofcourse I get it moved to where I want if I go another way. The question
is why it does NOT snap to midpoints as it does to endpoints? As seen here
if I'd want to move the other solid I can easily place the marker on the very same
middle edge point I just tried snapping too, funny...
Matias...
Strange, because it snaps just fine with me

Oh now I see... it's true, you can't snap like that using the free move tool
now that I understand, your only option is to align the body to the middle, and for that you need a plane or a face to align to, and that leads us back to my previous screencast when I made a plan at angle and aligned the body to it

I agree you should be able to do this with the move tool. Add it to the idea station and I will vote for it.
There is a way to do this with a joint and the move tool but it should be a lot simpler then it is.
If they would add the ability to constrain along an edge or axis in the move tool then point to point would work fine.

I know this is not the way you want to do it but it is a work around...

Hi Phil
There are alot of workarounds, I know 🙂
Not that I dont get the job done but things you've picked up from other programs
and found useful. This aint some miracle function so I dont see why not use it.
Go on and vote then
