Question on the 3d sketch tutoral

you are moving the circle, not just a ctr point.

I don't even bother putting turbocad on my resume. what a MASSIVE load of crap that is.

I come from 2D CAD package background too, and my impression is that you need to think dimensions. Dimensions seem to drive things where you want them. I was using to picking something up, then moving it x,y to a new place.

Try adding a dimension from a fully defined point (edge,face whatever) to the centre of the circle, and entering the correct distance for the dimension.(Edit the circle sketch, add smart dimension) That should work...

Frankly I am not a draftsmen I am being forced into it. I am a programmer by proffesion. The last time I looked at a cad system before I started this was in 86 so Turbocad looked pretty good to me :) Solidworks is light years ahead of it. It does so much for you that it is down right scary. I am working on the hinge tutorial now.
