I moved from 2016 to 2023 (new employment) and the best fit alignment is not working as I would expected. For example I get an "Error in A1" trying my normal 6 dof (YZ, YZ, XZ) using 3 edge points on a common plane. If I use the 3 same three poin

Error in Best Fit Align in 2023.2 at new Job

Parents

I did this backwards as this is my first post in nexus. Trying to use best fit for manual alignment. I have 3 edge points and first tried how I would normally setup (YZ, YZ & XZ) and get the error in a1 pop up. If I align all the dof (xyz, xyz & xyz) I don't get the error but the deviation is up to 2.5mm. They should be zero. See below info.
