I have no idea what these "origins" are. They are showing for each part in my assembly.
They showed up after a system crash.
How do I turn them off?
Using Inventor 2017
Those are Center of Gravity indicators. Their visibility can be toggled in each part with the View > Visibility > Center of Gravity button.
Is your installation of Inventor 2017 up to date? The latest version is 2017.4.13. There was an issue in past versions with these COG indicators remaining on after a crash and unable to be turned off, but I believe that has been resolved.

I am unable to turn them off, even after opening each part.
When I open the individual parts, the COG is not showing.
I tried turning COG on, saving the part, turning it back off, saving again. They still show in the assembly.
Can you Attach the assembly here?
When I open your assembly in Inventor 2017, I do not see COG markers. But you are using 2017 build 142, which was the initial release. There have been four major updates, and thirteen minor updates to update 4. I suspect if you updated your Inventor installation, your problem would be solved. If you can still find them, you need to install update 4, then install update 4.13. The Autodesk Desktop App on your computer should be able to take care of that for you.

Hi! I believe it is a notorious scene corruption bug in parts and assemblies. The source is still not yet identified. But, we did implement fixes to avoid it from happening and cleaning up when necessary. Please install 2017.4 update followed by 2017.4.13 update, like Sam indicated.
Many thanks!
Since my subscription has lapsed, I dont think I'm able to install any updates. Or, am I still able to update an older version?
I rebuilt the assembly in a new .ASM and have had no problems with it.
Thanks for all of your help, guys.
