Inplaced Family clone copy not able to move to other position?!

[Richard McCarthy]

Another question :
It seems Inplaced Family clone copy not able to move to other position?!
It will only move in one direction. Is there any way to uncontraint the whole object so it can move freely in all axis?

Did you try to move/copy while in family edit mode?
Move/ copy in the same family or edit family / select / copy / close family / create new family / paste in new family
Did you use the "disjoin" check box while move/copy?

These where the things I did wrong

Probablement que tu as créé ta famille sur un plan de construction ou une vue lié à un plan de référence. Par exemple un plan vertical pour dessiner une ferme de charpente. Depuis le plan d'étage, ta famille ne se déplace que sur son plan de construction.
Pour pouvoir copier dans une autre direction, il est nécessaire d'inclure l'éléments qui supporte le plan de construction.

Probably that you created your family on a plan of construction or an view related to a reference plane. For example a vertical plane to draw a truss.
In the floor plan, your family moves only on her plan of construction. To be able to copy in another direction, it is necessary to include the element which supports the plan of construction.

You can select the object in plan and the work plane icon should appear. Simply click disassociate work plane. This essentially makes the object a free instance...

Ah, thanks guys, I will try that tonite

Or do "move" "disjoin" which gives you the same result as Mr Spot noted!
