Manipulator WB loves Arch sections and Draft shape 2D view more...
When I tried to align two objects I noticed that Manipulator WB moves the Draft shape 2D presents in the document rather than the geometries. So I deleted the shape 2D view, but then Manipulator changed to move Arch section...
I just updated manipulator WB yesterday.

Could you please post a file to test... I don't use Arch so I don't know how to test your example.

Here you are...
I think the problem is the link between Arch section or draft shape2dview and the object...
There is a chain and Manipulator WB tries to move the last one in the chain... maybe?

I have a feature request for the manipulator WB. When increasing the number of digits of FC the number of digits of the manipulator WB stay the same(2 digits). Would it be possible to follow the accuracy of FC?

Would you mean the digit for Measurement in Caliper?
Or for data input in the Mover?

The data input.

Ps. the digits after the point are not the same for rotation and translation...

Hi Everyone,

the Manipulator WB is great....but has anyone noticed strange 'undo' behavior? After an alignment operation, when i CNTRL-Z to undo, it moves the wrong part back. For example, I align B to A. Then do 'undo.' It seems A goes to B's location???
