      I was just looking at Dave Richards Making Waves tutorial on the Fine Woodworking website and he mentions a native plug in in SU called Point at Center. I looked in the extensions menu and I have the right boxes ticked but the plug in does not appear . I looked for it on the Ruby plug ins menu website but while there are some point plug ins , Point at Center is not there either.
      Has this plug in been incorporated into another one in an update or has it just been removed entirely?

        It appears in the Right Click menu when you click on an exploded arc...confusing, I know πŸ˜‰

            Sorry that wasn't clear in the tut. By the way, it should be unexploded arc.

                However, if you find yourself with an exploded arc, and circumstances do not allow to weld the segments due to fragmentation, perhaps in a very complex model, I would recommend Chris Fullmer's Exploded Arc Centerpoint Finder πŸ‘

                Edit: to find it, click on the red Plugins Index link at the top of the page.

                I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.
