Automatic coordinate system on center point

Automatic coordinate system on center point

I've had a bad expirience with the coordinate system on inventor. Often a sketch would fail because he has lost a line on the parent surface.

 

The problem i have, i never choose that line or corner. After much confusion i found out how to realign the coordinate system back to the origin planes and center point. Now there are two options:

 

  1. have a shortcut to realign the coordinate system on the origin
  2. have an option in the sketch option that will always put the sketch coordinates on the center point

 

If anybody had the same expirience or can tell my why Inventor seemingly chooses some random corner to put his coordinate system, please explain this to me.

Hi @benedikt_zeilinger. I agree with your post and have given a vote. This has been discussed before and there is a Master idea which requests better functionality when we create new Sketches. Please consider voting on the master idea to help get this issue addressed: Sketch Orientation; "Look-At" Feature. Thanks!
