Recommended for you

In Viewer, go to "Result > Options > Transformation".

Select User Specified, and then you should be able to pick any user-defined coordinate system for output.

You can create coordinate systems in "Tools > Coordinate System > Create"

You can Transform the part in Assembly.

In assembly> translate instance> Select the part you want to move, then follow its instruction.
