Some how moved my XZ plane off of the origin how to I reset it?

So I was working off one of the origin planes and somehow managed to move it? all my old sketches and extrusions are centered at the origin but now any new sketches look like this? Generally I would just control Z back a little and that would fix it but not this time. anyone have any ideas?

No ideas without seeing the file.

 

Also, this post is better suited for Inventor General Discussion as it has nothing to do with the API nor iLogic.

 

I'll ask for it to be moved.

Thanks for your reply unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a "General" under Inventor its either "Customization" "Engineer-to-order" or " Publisher"

 

I was just hoping there was a "reset origin planes" or some such option.

It's just the top option - "Forum".

 

I don't think there is any such command as that in the Part file.

 

And if we can see the part file, we can likely figure out how it happened and how to prevent it in the future.
