Using Alignment Documents - Activating and Deactivating the Current Alignment Item
Activating and Deactivating the Current Alignment Item
Within the alignment document one alignment item is always selected for use. You can choose to activate the currently selected item at any time. When an alignment item is active, Alignment Manager uses the transformation data contained by the object to convert your device coordinates into the part coordinate system represented by the object. Deactivation of the alignment item causes future data to be collected in device coordinates.
