Hi all, I'm using Nanocad 5.0
I've an issue when editing nested blocks, the object is temporary moved away from the main block (I guess to its original place when it was defined). This behavior is different than when editing a main block or non-nested which stay at the current place (see attached images).
The problem is I normally need external references to make the modifies, but this way it's harder.
Can you confirm the issue and give me some advice?
Thanks.

Yes,
blocks can have their insertion points, but the block that encloses the other blocks must have its insertion point at the origin.
Look at the difference between the yellow block and the red one.

I have no answer except that this observation ... we have to deal with it because I do not see any alternative ... maybe move the UCS ...

I see... now it's clear to me how it works. Unfortunately it's not useful applied to daily work, when need interacting with several instances of the blocks and all other objects in the model.
I think it surely deserves a wishlist place.
Thanks anyway for your support.
