Hi everybody,

 

Is is possible to change the referential axis without changing the used sketches?


In the place where I am working there was created different files by different users in different moments and now if I want to substitute one part by another part it doesn’t work because the axis are not the same.

 

Follow the pictures bellow and the UCS as an example.

It would be nice if:

the X becomes -Y

the Y becomes X

Z it is ok

Thanks for your help.

 

Kindly,

FM

Hi

There are several methods:

  1. Use Direct Edit to rotate a body
  2. Edit sketch definition to another face
