Rehost a Reference Point

Detach a hosted point and rehost it to another spline, reference plane, edge, or surface.

1. In the conceptual design environment, select the point to be rehosted.
2. Click Modify | Reference Points tabRehost Point panel (Pick New Host).
3. If you are rehosting to a work plane, select a work plane from the Host list on the Options Bar.
4. Click to specify the new location of the reference point.

When you rehost a hosted point, any geometry that is applied to its work plane will move with the point.

Rehosting a hosted point that is part of a spline

Rehosting a hosted point with splines applied to its work plane

When you rehost a driving point, any geometry that is dependent on it will move proportionately. If the new host is a spline, the driving point will become a hosted point along that spline. The spline that originally hosted the point will remain modifiable and adjust to the new host position.

When rehosting to a different plane, the point remains a driving point, only changing position and work plane orientation.
