Move: Random pivot placement

Any reason why Fusion always sets the pivot to a random location? I'm moving a sketch, at least place it on the same plane the sketch is on? Manually setting the pivot doesn't always work that's buggy too...

 

Here's my sketch plane:

And here's where Fusion decided I wanted my pivot. Out in space...:

It's difficult to tell with it invisible, but I would think that is likely the origin of the component you're within or the file itself. That can be validated or disproved by turning on the visibility of either. When free-moving things in Fusion it typically references the origin.

 

If you're trying to pivot (I would assume you mean rotate) the sketch (or some features dependent on the sketch) and need to reference something not the origin, I would create whatever you need using the "Construct" tools (points, axes, planes, etc.).

In the video I show the origin. It's hard to see. It is not snapping to either the file's origin point or the model's origin point.
