what reference plane a component is created to???
This is not urgent but every now and then I'll create an in-place family that will be latched onto a reference plane. Then I'll be creating a similar one nearby and therefore start over.
I know I can copy it and move it, but it would still be in reference to that first reference plane. So basically can I assign it to another parallel reference plane?

If and when it is possible, take a look at the options bar. There should be an option to Edit Workplane. Very often you can reassign the object to a different workplane. Comes in handy it quite often, one of those little things I'm grateful for but forget to say so!

Awesome Steve!!! Thanks.
I've actually seen that but never investigated it.
I guess I should look up from what I'm doing more often! LOL!
