Move 3D PCB Board component without break link

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

I'm so excited with the new integration of PCB electronics within Fusion 360, but due to time I need to finish one board which I was designing and using the Fusion 360 integration with Eagle.

What I'm trying to do is to move one component in one assemble design without "breaking the link", because it's very difficult move it separately in each file, and if I break the link to move it, I don't know how to make again the link connection with the changed that I made.

I attached an image to better understanding.

I hope you can understand what I'm trying to do, and sorry for my English, it's not my native language. 

Thanks guys!

Hello @Anonymous,

I think that you have to move the component in the original PCB file. You can't move it in the assembly without breaking the link.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

I agree with @jorge_garcia 
I make all the component moves in the PCB layout and push them to the MCAD models.

I learned to use the measure tool to figure out the adjustment in X/Y and apply that to the feature on the PCB.

Thank you,

I was thinking in solving this issue with the measure tool, but I was wondering if there was other way more easy, but thank I'm gonna use the tool.
