Multibody model (part studio), a change in position from origin causes all parts to be revisioned?

Hi

Ive been using Onshape for a while now (coming from Solidworks). We have run through a few projects and generally like the workflow that Onshape offers.

Is it correct, that if I create a multibody part studio then have separate drawings of all those parts and push them through the release management. If I then moved the origin of the multibody parts, (but they stay physically the same) these are seen as requiring a new revision even though their respective dimensions/physical size etc has not changed at all?

Is Onshape not able to distinguish between a place in space (in a part studio) and its physical properties, and realise when a part has not changed and only moved?

Thanks

    Correct - if a Part Studio is edited, the bodies are checked before/after and if they have moved they are classed as edited and need to be re-released. Please create an improvement request to change this behaviour.
