Location & Orientation Controls in Derived Workflows

[bverboort]

I'd like to be able to easily modify the location and orientation of (index and
move) a derived model at the time of placement and after placement.

I know I can use the Direct Edit toolset to accomplish this, but it's a bit
cumbersome and after the fact.

Ideally, I'd like to have the same type of controls we have when placing a
component in an assembly.... Only available during the Derive workflow.

Best,

Brian

Doesn't the Move Body tool do what you want?  True, it's only available after the fact, but it gives parametric control of the position and orientation.

Yes. Would like control 'as' placement ocurrs.
