How to correctly move objects?

Post by madcello »

Good morning to all.

I've just made this tutorial, very strait forward to follow.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y86grfV ... TMQSpF7Pt4
I'ts a pipe with a curve and a flange in one of the ends.

After following the tutorial I wanted to copy the flange to the other end.
1 - Clone the flange (Dolly sheep :) )
2 - Now I could not get a simple way to align the cloned flange to the other end of the pipe.

Can you help me with this "simple" task?

Thank you!

Assuming you are using Part Design workbench, the Manipulator workbench should handle it.

If in Part workbench and you've done a Draft Clone, The Part workbench Attachment could be used.
