Client graphics are just graphics and don't know what they're supposed to
represent or how they should behave. Because of this you have to define,
and program their behavior. Within client graphics is the GraphicsNode
object. This represents a grouping of lower-level graphic objects. A
GraphicsNode object can have its visibility turn on and off, can be scaled,
be made selectable, and can be repositioned within model space. It's
possible to respond to events in Inventor when the end-user tries to drag
this object so you can take over and control the movement. An easier, but
still not trivial, approach is to have a custom command that controls the
movement.

In short, it is possible, but not particularly easy.

Thanks Brian,

That helped me a lot!

Here's a brief description of what I would like to accomplish. Have the end-user select each individual lifting lug (red part: see attached file) and position them (slide along the channel).

Regards.
