Problem- translating a contour

[orizaba]

After I finished drawing a part, I translated it over to x axis, and saved it. Later, I deleted one of the contours and it disappeared, but the underlying geometry moved back to its location before I translated it. I have run into this before,and just worked around it. This time I'm stuck. Why does the old geometry show up in the origional location when I delete the contour?

Matt when you make a contour and transale it. your only copying the first contour not the underlying geometry. the underlying geometry is blanked out by the first contour. But it is not copied and transaled with the contour

Thanks. I will wait until I have the part where I want it, then create the contours.
Thanks again
