Hello,
Referencing below thread...... Move Object in NX8.0.0.25, I can't seem to find "Snap handles to WCS" during dynamic positioning. What the cube was in the referenced thread is a sphere now and a mouse over tip pops up "Translate Origin". I see no reference or option to re-orient the handles rather than just reposition the origin.

Thanks,

Still works as in the referenced thread; make sure the "Specify Orientation" step is highlighted before you right click on the origin sphere.

It is selected. I made sure I hit that multiple times in various tries thinking the same thing. When I right click on the sphere a small window pops up and with a couple options, but nothing happens when selected. See attachment for a screenshot.

What version are you running?

Thanks for lookin'

Kevin

I'm running NX 8.0.3.4, below is what I see when I right click on the sphere. I'd suggest installing the latest maintenance release (MR), it may solve your problem.

This is working just fine in NX 8.0.3.4 as well as NX 8.5.3.2 and NX 9.0.0.19.

MR 8.0.3 took care of it.
