An error occurred while saving the comment I know two workflows to make this happen.
First.
1. Enable smart guides
2. Grab the intersection of the rulers (the zero point) and drag it over the center of your object (assuming there is one, you can enable it in Attributes panel with Show Center), or to a chosen point on canvas. If your pattern is built with its center in the center of its module, this should effectively center the module in the object.
3. Cut the shape
4. Reset coordinates (or return them to their original position in cases you were not using the default zero). Make sure you have Transform Pattern Tiles option enabled in Preferences!
5. Paste the object
Now you have the pattern centered.
Just watch the GIF.Second.
Use a free script instead — Reset Pattern.jsx by Toshiyuki Takahashi (gau)

Hi Everyone,
The fix for this request is available in our latest release build – 27.3. The version is being rolled out.
What’s new in 27.3: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/whats-new/2023-2.html
Thank you for all the feedback.
An error occurred while saving the comment @Łukasz (and @Marc),
yep, and this is a known thing too, and it’s been under discussion for months.And the developer is not sure about this. See, Ai is a live tool, and changing things like this can often bring more pain — it happened many times before. So they got cautious and prefer to get more feedback to figure out the actual demand.
Here is another related report:
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/40866958-colour-values-change-on-their-own-very-frustratinSee, this is more complex than it may seem. You say you work with global swatches a lot (I do as well). Unlike spot colors, global color swatches remember the values using the document color model — whichever mode you specify when creating a global swatch. It’s been like this for years, since very beginning. It makes sense — in a way.
So if we work in CMYK and create a global swatch and choose HSB, like 150-100-50, — Ai will recalculate these values into CMYK. If we open the dialog back — we will get CMYK values, because this is what is stored. And if we change the mode in the dialog back to HSB, we will get something like 150.08-100-50.2.
We can create spot colors instead — they respect the chosen mode for keeping values, but this creates additional colors in actual separations, and this is NOT what those who print want, at all.
So the problem is not about 'remembering the chosen mode' here, but about 'remembering global swatches using the specified values in the chosen mode' — which is a more heavy and potentially hazardous change. If it goes the simpler route and just forces a viewing mode instead of actually keeping values using it — like you say — then Ai will LIE to a user about the values, forcing fractions, like in the example above. 'Hey, I set other values!!! Why Illustrator adds fractions?!' — oh, this happens all the time even now, and this will get worse.
So, given this — what are your thoughts on the change?
Regarding 'do you even test those things before publishing those new "features"?' — yes. But Łukasz, did you test it? This change was first pushed into Beta. Did you try it?

An error occurred while saving the comment Photoshop has a dedicated command for changing this behavior: in Preferences > File Handling: Do not append "copy" to filename when saving a copy.
It feels like you want the same thing in Ai, right?
Do you prefer this as an option like Ps has, or do you specifically want a 'Suffix' checkmark, like we have in Ai now on export?
Both ways are consistent, but ...differently :) -

An error occurred while saving the comment That’s an interesting proposal, and yes, I had this problem myself. Not sure if someone requested it. Can you, please?
An error occurred while saving the comment Marc, I understand your confusion. Recolor panel is intimidating!
If you share a test file (not exactly this one) and say which color you want to replace with what other one, I can record you a short demo to show the method.An error occurred while saving the comment Marc, Illustrator allows this already, but in a different way.
— Select the art to limit the selection, where you want this replacement to be limited to (it won’t work for all the document if you don’t select anything, unfortunately)
— Edit > Edit Colors > Recolor Artwork (or just the Recolor button in the Control or the Properties panels)
— Hit Advanced Options button, if it launches in the compact mode
— In the New column, double click the color you want to change and pick the colour you want to use instead (you can choose from the document’s swatches, if you click Color Swatches button)
— Hit Apply and ApplyIt might look like it’s a longer way (7-8 steps!), but that’s because Ai just allows much more with this dialog. And InDesign’s route is not really that longer, if you count clicks.
Reply back about if it works for you, and if it does not — please tell why.
And BTW, thanks for the recent activity here. We need more action here.

An error occurred while saving the comment Two commercial plugin solutions now can do that:
1. Extract Dashes command in PathScribe panel from Astute Graphics
2. A dedicated command in CADtools 13 from Hot DoorAn error occurred while saving the comment This is now possible with the Extract Dashes option in the PathScribe plugin panel from Astute Graphics. So cool.

An error occurred while saving the comment While this is being implemented (it is, is it not?), use 'breakDashes.jsx' script by Hiroyuki Sato from here:

An error occurred while saving the comment If you still have Actions’ slots for F-keys, you can speed the process up a bit more. I uses these for other things though.
As for the feedback — the team is really reading UV and makes their decisions based on it. Not directly and straightforward, but as one of major sources of feedback.

An error occurred while saving the comment Unlike the 'sticky settings' problem for the wand, this one is less popular.
An existing workaround is
1. Select > All on Active Artboard
2. Select > Inverse
3. Object > Lock > Selection
and then try to work with the Wand on the active artboard...
Sure it’s not perfect, and the request is valid. But 3 votes is rarely enough to promote a request. -

An error occurred while saving the comment K-O, there are some discussions held about giving more fields a sticky behavior, including Magic Wand. This does not mean specifically it’s going to happen soon, but at least this train is finally departing. The team is at least aware of this now!
25 votes is a sum of unique voices for all three requests merged — it means same users voted for all three.
Until the status of this request changes to 'Under Review' or anything similar, we all should wait (again) and hope (still). Thanks for the head up.
BTW, if you notice some other requests that can benefit from being merge, don’t hesitate to comment. Many similar entries get merged daily, but there are plenty of them left. I read all new comments as soon as they pop.

Oh, yeah, a common problem:
https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/deleting-user-defined-ai-swatches/td-p/10465485
Ai team should add a menu item right there, 'Open the location'
