defining grouped object base point to pivot
#1
Guys
I am doing simple simulations with grouped assemblies and it would be great if I can add a permanent pivot base point to the group so I can just select the grouped object and go right to rotate it at this point instead of having to establish the base point for rotation everytime?
Thanks for any help in advance.

I am getting the same thing your are. Once you set the base point for rotation, that Group can be rotated multiple times around that base point.  But I know that isn't what you want it to do. I guess DeltaCad had their reason to do that.
If you go to the Edit tab and click the Edit button [E] and change the angle value of the Group it will rotate around the base point that you selected when you created the Group.
If you could write a Macro you could use the dcSetSelectBase function to set the base point then use dcRotateSelObjs function to rotate the Group.
