In this video, Elizabeth shows you the key tools available when you want to reposition components or move your part back to where it started. Learn what the Capture Position tool does, and what it means, and utilise the options of as-built joints to give you further parametric control over your assembly.

- How do I move my model?
- How is the Align tool different to Constraints and Mates in other software?
- What is Capture Position and what do I do when it pops up?
