I'll back you up on that too. Right now I use inventor because I have a license. I used to have a solidworks license and liked that a lot, I've used CATIA a lot (and hopefully getting a license soon. My brother's business partner is a distributer) and that is by far my favorite.

Ian M: I noticed that same problem. Anything referencing a work plane in an assembly never seems to be entirely parametric. Mirroring components, then moving the plane leaves the components unchanged.
