Hello,

I kinda searched around for something that seems to be a weird problem.  I modified a basic table to have curved legs.  I used a blended sweep to replace all four legs, align them, and then save the family.  It looks fine in the family editor but when I load into my project, the legs are misaligned.  I'm trying to figure out if this is a glitch or if i'm doing something wrong.  For what it's worth, I'm new to family editing and creation so if I'm doing something stupid, let me know.

See attachments.  Using RAC 2012.

you need to create reference planes and lock the legs to them, then constrain them to the length and width reference planes. there are multiple types in your family as well. if you only have the one size delete the other two types you do not need.
