            Hi Thom!
            Could your make your genious tool even more genious?:

            1. Axes to the component's bottomcenter;
            2. Add CPoint at pivot (there's no snap to pivot in SU unfortunatly)

              Yup, on the todo list to be able to choose which part of the boundingbox.

              Can do that, yes. But I'll add it to Guide Tools.

                1.Fine but could bottom center be default value? Or at least make script to remember last preference.
                2.Wouldn't it be smarter not split into 2 commands?
                P.S. Not concerned to the topic:
                You made some nice ruby 'groups to components'. But After the procedure it deselects the new born component. Could it keep the selection on?

                  It'd remember the last used setting.

                  It'd not be between center or bottom center, it's be between any corner, and center of each of the bounding box sides. So it'd be a lot more options than just two.

                    I'm afraid I don't unerstand you. Anyhow what I mean is moving pivot to bottom center + placing cpoint
                    to the same bottom center within one ruby (command) would be better.

                      Some may not want to add a cpoint and some may not want to adjust the axis. Keep them separated and people can choose.

                        You decide (though I see a bunch of rubies that do insert here and there cpoints without too much''people"
                        protest). The main thing for me that cpoint at pivot would be a part of given component.

                          Ah - I can see uses for inside and outside.
                          Will make a note of that.

                                  One more thing:
                                  Could this script stick to the current model axes not absolute world?

                                    It doesn't rotate the axis, it simply moves the origin of the components - the insertion point.

                                    Though, it could be made to also rotate the axis to match the current model axis.

                                            Hello sir,

                                            This plugin is very good & handful .....

                                            but when i was applying following Settings :

                                            X (Red) : Right
                                            y (Green): Back
                                            z (Blue): Top

                                            selected any group or component its work

                                            but when i was applying again it on another group or component, it will not reset to the default settings ....?

                                            I was changing default MODULE

                                            ### MODULE VARIABLES ### -------------------------------------------------
                                            
                                            	# Preference
                                            	@settings = TT;;Settings.new('Axes editor tool')
                                            	@settings[;x, 'Left']
                                            	@settings[;y, 'Front']
                                            	@settings[;z, 'Bottom']
                                            

                                            How to reset ......?

                                            Thank you,
