hi i'm trying to reset the XYZ origins of a space to 0,0,0, but find that the vertices of the surfaces associated with the space stays the same and the geometry all get messed up. Is there a way to reset the surfaces along with the XYZ origin changes of the space?

I used the space.resetXOrigin() in the measure.

I think this cleanup_group method in this measure that cleans up space and other surface group origins may do what you want.

This method gets a bounding box of the surface group and resets origin to the min x,y,z. But you could change that to set it to model 0,0,0.
