Description

Shift will adjust a entire shape file into by a deltaX, deltaY and deltaZ. It is typically used to adjust the center of figure to center of mass.

It can also deal with the fact that sometimes a shape model's center of figure can drift off of the 0,0,0 coordinate center, i.e. the middle of the asteroid is no longer at the origin of the system. The typical way to do this is to run shape_info and use its Center of Figure offsets as the input for shift.
