How to move a component dynamically along an axis not aligned to the WCS. 



Solution

1. In the Assembly Navigator, select the component, 'MouseButton3-->Move'. 
2. On the Move Component dialog, set the Motion to 'Dynamic'. 
3. Check the box for 'Move Handles Only'. 
4. Highlight 'Specify Orientation' and select one of the Dynamic Axis. 
5. Then select the desired vector for the component to move along, such as an edge or datum axis.
6. Now UN-check the 'Move Handle Only' option. 
7. Once the desired vector is selected, the Dynamic Axis will align to it and the component can be dragged along this axis.
