Trying to center a logo that I imported as SVG

[rickbegert]

Hi All

This is my first post and my very first project. I've completed my 3d design and was excited that I got it done. Showed the wife and she said the logo isn't centered! Ugh! 

Now I've been searching YT and can't for the life of me figure out how to do this.

Any help or direction would be amazing.

Just measure the case and the logo, then determine the border size:  (Case width-Logo width)/2.  Unfix the logo and move it point to point.

See attached file.

Thank-you for the info, I guess I should have been more clear.

While I was waiting for a reply I managed to somehow measure the distance between the top outer H (closest to the edge) of case and the bottom D (closest to the edge) of case on the front side, I then somehow was able to select the H and D and move both together until the live measurements were close but not exact. 

Then I tried the Back logo and for some reason I cannot repeat measurements of the distances like I did on the front, When I try to measure it just picks a random spot and not where I want like the front. On the front side it allowed me to pick my exact two spot. I think I did something different on the back that is confusing me.

I also noticed that I don't know what Sketch3 is? I deleted it as I though it was not necessary. 

I don't know what I'm doing wrong?

I'm so new to this and getting frustrated.

I have attached what I've changed since the first post.

Hi,

Hello!
in order not to deface the sketch, I created the logo as a separate “stamp” and then punched it into the container on both sides using “Combine”.

Since the logo is the same on both sides, use a circular pattern the create the back side logo:

1. Start by suppressing or deleting the back logo feature.
2. Create a midplane between the front and back faces.
3. Create a sketch on that plane.
4. Project the body.
5. Draw a line between the midpoints of the horizontal projected lines. 
6. In a circular pattern select the front logo emboss feature as the Objects and the vertical centerline as the Axis.

Wow, you make it so simple. Thank-you so much. So much to learn, Creating the box and opening was fairly easy with the help of YT but as soon as I imported the logo it was a daunting task for me.
How did you do the boundary box around the logo? Wish there was a good you tube vid on this as I found this to be the hardest thing I've come across, so far.
