Method center

        Shift local coordinates to the specified location.

        The location is specified in terms of local coordinates.

        :param x: the new x location
        :param y: the new y location
        :returns: the Workplane object, with the center adjusted.

        The current point is set to the new center.
        This method is useful to adjust the center point after it has been created automatically on
        a face, but not where you'd like it to be.

        In this example, we adjust the workplane center to be at the corner of a cube, instead of
        the center of a face, which is the default::

            # this workplane is centered at x=0.5,y=0.5, the center of the upper face
            s = Workplane().box(1, 1, 1).faces(">Z").workplane()

            s = s.center(-0.5, -0.5)  # move the center to the corner
            t = s.circle(0.25).extrude(0.2)
            assert t.faces().size() == 9  # a cube with a cylindrical nub at the top right corner

        The result is a cube with a round boss on the corner
