Is there a way of pasting a sketch onto a plane to an exact location? I tried to do it by zero dimensioning to a feature but it will not allow me to get any closer than .000039. This is not a functional problem for the drawings I am doing but it is still irritating not to be able to move the sketch to an exact location.
Thanks

I've been doing it the cheats way laterly.
Autodim then drag it...

Not 100% sure what you're trying accomplish, but here's a cheat you can use when confronted with a zero dimension value problem:
Let's say the origin is the feature that you wish to have a zero dimension to. Create a line and dimension it 1" away from the origin. Then create a dimension between that line and your sketch entity and give it a value of 1 inch. This locates your geometry exactly. If you're fussy about it, you could link the two values.

Hmm,.. there are at least three ways to do this and it should get you exactly where you want it to be?
1) Tools/Sketch Tools/Move or Copy (select sketch, ref point and move to new point) 2) Tools/Modify Sketch (move cursor over point, point icon appears and drag to new point) 3) Insert/Derived Sketch (drag ref point to new point, underive)..
