Centre an object in Inventor 2009


Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

I guess this is another object placement question. How to place an object that you have started sketching on the center of the sketch, that's the centre point that is projected on the sketch. In other words, place the centre of the thing on the thing.

 

Thanks

before you start a sketch you should make the origin point visible in the Origin folder in your parts design tree(on the left). From there the first object you sketch should be drawn and immediately constrained to the origin point. If you already have a completed sketch and it is fully constrained to itself you can add constraints with the origin point, but if you did something wrong or have a sketch entity that isnt dimensioned you will turn it into a mess.

 

Coincident(origin and center point of a circle). What is the sketch? can you post a screen shot?
