Move points changing with new alignments.

New programmer here. After I had already made a program and tested it, I had to go back and create another alignment for a few dimensions. Which of course changed all of my move points after that. I would have thought that recalling my original alignment after getting those dimensions would have restored my move points to their original coordinates, but it did not. I'm fresh out of class and this is only my 3rd program if you can't tell. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Move points don't adjust like they are supposed to when you mess with alignments in programs that have measured data. I have dealt with this plenty of times. After adjusting alignments, my features are correct but MOVE/POINT and MOVE/INCREMENT moves get messed up. The only way I have found to get this to work as expected is to run the program offline so that EVERYTHING is reset back to nominal BEFORE adjusting any alignments. If I do this before adjusting my alignment, then the path is not affected and will be adjusted as expected. HTH
