New to CAD Models

Good Morning! I'm new to using CAD models. I only used them in class. I created a manual plane, line, point alignment to make the model aligned with the machine. The problem I'm having is when I change my alignment or workplane, my points are no longer aligned with my model. They are offset and mess up my dimensions. Do I need to continually redo the manual alignment to keep everything where it should be or am I missing something else? Thanks in advance!

  • I think I'm going to have to start a new program since I wasn't always working in program mode. As my program is now, everything works perfectly fine and all dimensions are good until I change from A0B0 to A52.5B90. Once I do that, I can't select points from the model. It either shows them in incorrect placement, like hits going through the circle, or if it looks correct, when I execute the circle, it crashes into my part.
  • If the orietation of the CAD is correct. Change the features nominals used in the manual alignment. Those noimnals are in MACHINE coordinates and they need to be in relation to the TRIHEDRON that is on the cad when its imported.
