I am attempting to import an OBJ file exported from PrusaSlicer. As expected, when imported the obj does not align with any of the OpenSCAD axis origins. Since the OBJ file is ASCII text, and since it contains a list of vertices in the format " v X Y Z", such as "v 100.008842 131.285110 1.463421", I expected to be able to use the the negatives of the minimum X, Y, and Z vertex values to translate the imported object to align with the OpenSCAD origin. However, that does not seem to be the case. The only axis that this appears to work on is the Z axis. I do not understand this. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! Len

Never mind. I'm not sure what I was doing wrong, but this process seems to be working fine for me now. Sorry for the interruption.
