The part becomes yellow, that means that the move will be applied to the faces. Therefore the position of the part is not modified, but the position of the faces is changed with respect to the origin. Which is equivalent to changing the origin of the part.</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="KotomEng_1-1706809811117.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://www.ptcusercommunity.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/97417iDD85DDB18965386B/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="KotomEng_1-1706809811117.png" alt="KotomEng_1-1706809811117.png" /></span></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Now, move the part as you like.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Attention! if the part is used in other assemblies, after moving the origin of the part, the part will appear moved.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Thu, 01 Feb 2024 17:56:41 GMT https://www.ptcusercommunity.com/t5/Modeling/Can-i-change-the-origin-of-my-part/m-p/927567#M1115 Kotom-Eng 2024-02-01T17:56:41Z https://www.ptcusercommunity.com/t5/Modeling/Can-i-change-the-origin-of-my-part/m-p/927664#M1120 <P>Really thanks!<BR />It worked for me</P> Fri, 02 Feb 2024 08:15:34 GMT https://www.ptcusercommunity.com/t5/Modeling/Can-i-change-the-origin-of-my-part/m-p/927664#M1120 EI_10453429 2024-02-02T08:15:34Z
