    Change recognition: New solid in wrong place

    I created a *.MCX in MCX2 file from a parasolid (*.x_t) made in Solidworks2007.

    I have made changes to the file in SW a couple of times and succesfully done the change recognition.

    Now in this last rounnd of editing, when I do the change recogntition, the position of the new solid is offset from the old one. It is not rotated, just off by about 1/4" along two axis

    I have tried change recognition with the *.sldprt also but I have the same problem.

    Is there something that I should do or not do?

    In MCX MR2 and MR1 I believe you have access to the xform translate dialog upon importing a new solid using Change Recognition.

    I sometimes find it easier to create a new file and place the new solid in the appropriate location and then use the new MCX file to import into the Change recognition file.
    How can you learn anything new, if you think you already know it all?
