  • So, you have a car-position alignment all done for your part. Now you want to do a local alignment, as in, a specific hole, you want it to be X0 Y0 so you can dimension other thing to it. No big deal, simply make an alignment, pick that hole, set X & Y origin to it, and you are done. Go make your dimensions. Other than that, it is a simple math problem. Rotating and/or re-leveling, that's a different kettle of fish.
