Hello everyone,
I’d like to ask if there is a possibility to align multiple randomly created bodies at different positions at one axis at the center point. I’m creating different parts of an assembly separately and struggle to get them in right position afterwards.
Many thanks!
Jan

Sure! Have you tried the Align and the Translate tools?

Thank you that helped.
Is it also possible to set the second aiming point right onto an axis? Or do I need to pick a point onto another bodies’s surface?
