Is it possible to use the - Modify move part origin - command picking the lines of the automatic work piece? What is the easiest way to move the origin to the corner of the stock being machined?

I can use it for picking the actual part, holding down the alt key and getting the distance.

Normally, I will dimension the point I want to move to in all dim (x,y,z) then enter all three into the Move Origin box.

Might not be the best way, but its the best I've found. If anyone has a better way, would love to hear it too.

Move Part Origin dialog box -> click appropriate field (X,Y,Z) -> Alt + mouse click side of stock you want origin to move to -> repeat as required for other sides -> Do It

The origin will move to those points.
