The pierce point defines the location of the profile, relative to the sketch segment used to create the structural member. The default pierce point is the sketch origin in the profile library feature part. Any vertex or sketch point specified in the profile can also be used as a pierce point.
To change a pierce point:
-
Right-click a structural member and select Edit Feature.
-
In the PropertyManager, under Settings, click Locate Profile.
The display zooms to the profile of the structural member.
-
Select any of the vertices or sketch points on the profile.
The profile shifts to align the new pierce point with the structural member sketch segment.
-
Click .

Example: Same profile, with three different pierce points selected.
